00:00Every summer the island of Sodor is very busy.
00:05Holidaymakers love to sightsee.
00:07When the weather is fine, there is no better place to visit.
00:11Some people like to go to the mountains.
00:13Others like the valleys.
00:17Children love the seaside.
00:21One morning, Thomas was puffing along the line that runs by the coast.
00:25His two coaches, Annie and Clarabel, were packed with children going to the beach.
00:31Everyone was happy.
00:34Percy was taking some freight cars to the harbor.
00:37Hello, Thomas. You look cheerful.
00:40I wish I could take children today instead of freight cars.
00:43They're the vicar's Sunday school, explained Thomas.
00:46I'm busy this evening, but the station master says I can ask you to take the children home.
00:51Of course I will, promised Percy.
00:55Later, Percy saw Harold.
00:59Sorry, Percy. Can't talk. I'm on high alert.
01:04Why?
01:06Bad weather's due. My help's always needed.
01:09Mind how you go, Percy.
01:11Ha! Huffed Percy.
01:13As long as I've got rails to run on, I can go anywhere in any weather, anyhow.
01:18Goodbye.
01:25Be careful, warned Edward. There's a storm coming.
01:29A promise is a promise, thought Percy, no matter what the weather.
01:35The children had a lovely day, but by tea time, dark clouds loomed ahead.
01:42Annie and Clarabel were glad when Percy arrived.
01:45He was just in time. The rain streamed down Percy's boiler.
01:49Ugh, he shivered and thought of his nice dry shed.
02:05Percy struggled on past coastal villages and into the countryside.
02:11The river was rising fast.
02:18I wish I could see. I wish I could see, complained Percy as he battled against the rain.
02:24More trouble lay ahead.
02:33Oh, hissed Percy, the water is sloshing my fire.
02:38Percy's driver and fireman had to find some more firewood.
02:42I'll have some of your floorboards, please, said the fireman to the conductor.
02:46I only swept the floor this morning, grumbled the conductor, but he still helped.
02:53Soon, Percy's fire was burning well.
02:56He felt warm and comfortable again.
02:58Then he saw Harold.
03:01Oh, dear, thought Percy.
03:05Oh, dear, thought Percy. Harold's come to laugh at me.
03:11Something thudded onto Percy's boiler.
03:14Ow! exclaimed Percy.
03:16He needn't throw things.
03:18It's a parachute, laughed his driver.
03:21Harold's dropping hot drinks for us.
03:24Thank you, Harold, whistled Percy.
03:27Good to be of service, replied Harold and buzzed away.
03:34The water lapped Percy's wheels.
03:41Percy was losing steam again, but he plunged bravely on.
03:49I promised, he panted, I promised.
03:53He made one more big effort, and at last, exhausted but triumphant, he brought the train home.
04:00Well done, Percy, cheered Thomas.
04:02You kept your promise, despite everything.
04:07Sir Topham Hatt arrived in Harold.
04:09First he thanked the men, then Percy.
04:12Harold told me you were a wizard.
04:15He said he can beat you at some things, but not at being a submarine.
04:19I don't know what you two get up to sometimes, but I do know that you're a really useful engine.
04:26Oh, sir, whispered Percy happily.
