- George Carlin: Stepney the Bluebell Engine was busy talking to the other engines. It was his first visit to their railway and he was having a splendid time.
- Stepney: You are very lucky engines.
- George Carlin: He said.
- Stepney: Your line has got everything. It's long enough to give you a good run, and you have plenty of passengers. Then you have a quarry and a mine, so you'll need plenty of cars. Cars are fun. I miss them on our line.
- George Carlin: Percy was surprised. All the engines thought cars were trouble.
- Percy: You're welcome to take some of mine.
- George Carlin: He said.
- Percy: But you better ask driver first.
- George Carlin: Their drivers agreed and the two engines set off. Thomas and Toby were speechless. Stepney took the cars to the harbor. Then he picked up a load of empty ones and started back. Ahead was a cricket field. The game had just begun. Stepney and his driver had to wait at a signal.
- Driver: Good.
- George Carlin: Said his driver.
- Driver: We can watch the game.
- George Carlin: Then there was trouble. The batsman hit the ball. It flew high into the sky towards Stepney's train. Clunk! Went the signal. Thump! Went the ball into a car, but neither driver nor fireman heard it.
- Players: Stop!
- George Carlin: Yelled the players but Stepney didn't hear them.
- Stepney: Come along, come along.
- George Carlin: He puffed to the cars.
- Players: Our one and only ball!
- George Carlin: Cried the players.
- Players: Wake up, Caroline.
- George Carlin: They said to their old car.
- Players: The chase was on.
- George Carlin: Caroline coughed crossly and rolled down the road. Stepney wasn't hurrying. Caroline soon came up behind.
- Caroline: Toot toot!
- George Carlin: She wailed. The players shouted but Stepney was still too far for his driver and fireman to see or hear properly. They completely misunderstood.
- Driver: If those jokers wanna race.
- George Carlin: Said the driver.
- Driver: They can have one. Faster, Stepney, faster!
- George Carlin: Poor Caroline wasn't happy at all. She rattled along at twice her usual speed.
- Caroline: I shouldn't be treated like this.
- George Carlin: She grumbled.
- Caroline: This pace is too hot for my system. It'll fuse all my circuits.
- George Carlin: Suddenly, Stepney was nowhere to be seen.
- Caroline: Yahoo! That silly train has run into a hole so we can't catch it. I can go home now.
- George Carlin: But she couldn't. Her driver pounded Caroline on up the steep hill and then down the other side toward the station. Stepney was already here when Caroline cluttered in.
- Players: We need our ball back!
- George Carlin: Cried the players and explained everything. The ball was nestled under some straw and the third car from the van.
- Player: We found it!
- George Carlin: Cried a player.
- Driver: We're sorry.
- George Carlin: Sighed the driver.
- Player: Ah, you couldn't help it.
- George Carlin: Replied the player.
- Player: Now we must get back quickly.
- Driver: You'll be lucky.
- George Carlin: Said the driver.
- Driver: Caroline looks worn out.
- George Carlin: And she was. The driver spoke to the stationmaster and the signalman and they all agreed on a plan. Soon they had rolled Caroline on to a flatcar and a breakvan coupled behind. The players crowded inside and Stepney pulled the train back to the play field. Everyone enjoyed watching the game. Even Caroline was pleased. She doesn't think trains silly now.
- Caroline: They have their uses. They can save wear and tale on a poor car's wheels.
