00:00:04It was a bright, clear day on the island of Sodor, and Thomas was pulling the local,
00:00:10the slow train that stops at every station along the main line, from Knapford to Vicarstown.
00:00:38Clarabelle, was that...? No! It's a lovely day, Annie. Can you hear the birds singing?
00:00:45Yes, the birds. Tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet.
00:00:49What are you two going on about? I can't hear any...
00:00:55Gordon. No, Thomas, don't.
00:00:58There's nothing to prove. This is the slow train.
00:01:03Just to the next signal box, ladies. First past the post wins the race.
00:01:12And it's Thomas coming on the inside.
00:01:15It's our plucky little tank engine, everyone's favourite number one,
00:01:18taking on the big blue beast, known in Tinmouth as...
00:01:24Gordon!
00:01:27Thomas' tiny tank engine pistons are pumping now. Full steam ahead as Thomas races towards Signal Box. Victory!
00:01:36Ha-ha-ha! He-he-he! I win! I win!
00:01:40Ha-ha! Bad luck, Gordon! Ha-ha-ha-ha!
00:01:43Doom!
00:01:46Thomas was still going pretty fast as he arrived at the big station in Vicarstown,
00:01:52the last mainline stop on the island of Sodor.
00:02:10One day I'm going to race right through this station and over the bridge to the mainland again.
00:02:16Not today, Thomas. This train terminates here.
00:02:22Oh, wow. Who's this with two tenders?
00:02:31Hello. Are you from the other railway? I was built on the mainland, you know? And once, a long time
00:02:37ago, I went back across with the other famous engines from Sodor.
00:02:41Is that so? I didn't think there were famous engines on Sodor. Oh. Hello, Gordon.
00:02:49Do you two know each other?
00:02:50Yes, Thomas. We know each other. This is my brother. They call him the Flying Scotsman.
00:02:59Indeed they do. It almost makes me sound famous, doesn't it? Oh, Gordon, I wanted to tell you my news.
00:03:08I've been invited to take part in the Great Railway Show on the mainland. I shall be racing.
00:03:14The Great Railway Show? What's that? Oh, the Great Railway Show is where engines compete to see who's the fastest
00:03:22or the strongest or what have you. But I'm not sure any engines from Sodor will be going.
00:03:29I wouldn't want to go anyway. Not if it's full of engines like you, always boasting about how exciting things
00:03:37are on the mainland.
00:03:39Well, I want to go. Of course you do, Thomas. And with any luck, maybe you shall.
00:03:46Flying Scotsman coming through!
00:03:52Go!
00:04:20Oh, look! The Great Railway Show!
00:04:24It's gonna be special. It's gonna be great. Off to the mainland without coaches or freight.
00:04:31Please, sir, I beg you, I just have to know. Will you, won't you take me to the Railway Show?
00:04:40Take me, sir. I pull the heaviest trains. I'm such a mighty engine, sir, it's never a strain.
00:04:49It's not a tough decision, though, I have to confess. It's hard to find a better engine for the Express.
00:04:56Hmm, precisely. But I didn't mean not to take me, sir.
00:05:01Ha-ha! I know I'm kind of small, sir, but I'm not a beginner. I had a race with Gordon
00:05:07once and I was the winner.
00:05:12You ought to take me, sir. I'm modern and new. Your first diesel ever. I'm loyal, kind and true.
00:05:26It's gonna be special, it's gonna be great. Off to the mainland with our coaches or freight.
00:05:33Please, sir, I beg you, you can't help me, no.
00:05:36Will you, won't you take me to the railway show?
00:05:39Fast engines, long engines, tough engines, strong engines.
00:05:46Everyone who's any engine's eager to go.
00:05:48I'm not going anywhere.
00:05:51Will you, won't you take us to the railway show?
00:05:54It's gonna be special, it's gonna be great.
00:05:57Leaving behind all our coaches and freight.
00:06:00Please, sir, we're begging you, just can't say no.
00:06:03Will you, won't you take us to the railway show?
00:06:07Will you, won't you take us to the railway show?
00:06:10Will you, won't you take me to the railway show?
00:06:16Oh, Thomas, why would Sir Topham Hatt want to take a little tank engine like you to the Great Railway
00:06:24Show?
00:06:25I haven't decided who I'm taking yet.
00:06:28In any case, I do have to keep some engines on Sodor.
00:06:32After all, we still have a railway to run.
00:06:37I said, we still have a railway to run.
00:06:41Oh, sorry, sir.
00:06:43Oh, right.
00:06:44I'm on my way.
00:06:50La, la, la, la, la, la, railway show.
00:06:53I know what I'll be doing when everybody goes to the Great Railway Show.
00:06:59What, Thomas?
00:07:01Shunting trucks in the yard.
00:07:03I do have to keep some engines on Sodor.
00:07:07Blah, blah, blah.
00:07:08We still have a railway to run.
00:07:11Well, you are very good at shunting, Thomas.
00:07:16Thanks, but no thanks, Percy.
00:07:19I'd rather go to the Great Railway Show.
00:07:23If you really want to go, Thomas, all you have to do is put your mind to it.
00:07:28That's how I beat Gordon.
00:07:30I set my eyes on the track.
00:07:32Go!
00:07:33And took off racing.
00:07:35Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
00:07:40And as big and fast as Gordon is, he never overtook me.
00:07:48That's because you rushed off on your own.
00:07:50Gordon wasn't even racing, Philip.
00:07:52Oh, I wish everybody would stop saying that.
00:07:56It's not the point.
00:07:57The point is that you can do anything you want to, Thomas, if you just put your mind to it.
00:08:06Oops, sorry.
00:08:15The next morning, Thomas woke up with a smile on his face.
00:08:20Maybe Philip is right.
00:08:22Maybe I can do anything I want to.
00:08:25If I go as fast as the Flying Scotsman, the Fat Controller would definitely take me to the show.
00:08:31Oh, but you can't go as fast as the Flying Scotsman.
00:08:36Hi, Thomas!
00:08:39Oh!
00:08:41Caitlin!
00:08:42What if I was streamlined like Caitlin?
00:08:46Streamlining makes engines much faster.
00:08:49Ha, ha, ha, ha!
00:08:50Silly Thomas!
00:08:51Who ever heard of a streamlined...
00:08:54All I want is a bit of redefining
00:08:58A slinky, slicker, swiftical, smooth and shining
00:09:01To get the speed I really need
00:09:04Streamlining
00:09:07Whoosh!
00:09:08You'll wonder who was passing through
00:09:09Whoosh!
00:09:11You won't believe it's even true
00:09:12Whoosh!
00:09:14But all you see of me will be
00:09:15A shiny streak of racing blue
00:09:21I'll come to you, my friend
00:09:23As I need some redesigning
00:09:25To be a tank engine is so confining
00:09:28Give me the curves I deserve
00:09:31Streamlining
00:09:32Woohoo!
00:09:34Woohoo!
00:09:37Wow!
00:09:41Amazing!
00:09:45Wow!
00:09:49I love it!
00:09:52Whoosh!
00:09:53You'll wonder who was passing through
00:09:55Whoosh! You won't believe it's even true
00:09:58Whoosh! But all you see of me will be
00:10:00A shiny streak of racing blue
00:10:04Go Thomas, go! Go Thomas, go!
00:10:07All I want is a little redefining
00:10:10But certain other engines might be reconcining
00:10:13I'll get a shape that makes him gay
00:10:15I'll have it because I deserve
00:10:18I'll get the speed I really need
00:10:22Streamlining
00:10:24Quocco!
00:10:39Sorry, sir. I think I came in a little too quickly that time
00:10:43Yes, Thomas, you certainly did
00:10:45But I've had an idea
00:10:46If you were to take an engine
00:10:49Like me, sir
00:10:50And get the men at the steamworks
00:10:53To add some streamlining to him
00:10:54Then he'd be able to win races for you
00:10:57At the Great Railway Show
00:10:59That is an excellent idea, Thomas
00:11:04Are you sure about that, sir?
00:11:07Of course I am, Annie
00:11:09Thomas is quite right
00:11:11Once he's been streamlined
00:11:13Gordon will be faster than ever
00:11:15Isn't that right, Gordon?
00:11:23Even with all the excitement
00:11:25Work on the railway had to carry on
00:11:28And Brendan Docks was as busy as ever
00:11:32Okay, Diesel
00:11:33This is a nice big crate
00:11:35How about this one?
00:11:36Oh, no, no
00:11:38Not that one, Frankie
00:11:39It needs to be bigger
00:11:43That one!
00:11:44Yeah!
00:11:45That one!
00:11:46What do you want all these crates for anyway?
00:11:50Never you mind what I want them for
00:11:52It's a surprise!
00:11:55Oh, some engines
00:12:01What's up with you?
00:12:03I had this brilliant idea
00:12:05About how I could go to the Great Railway Show
00:12:07But the fag controller refused to streamline me
00:12:13Thomas, that's a good one
00:12:15A streamlined tank engine
00:12:18It's not that funny, Frankie
00:12:20Oh, ho, ho, ho
00:12:21Ho, ho, ho
00:12:22Ho, ho
00:12:22Ho, ho, ho
00:12:24Ho, ho
00:12:31Ho, ho
00:12:31To go!
00:12:32Ho, ho, ho
00:12:34Ho, ho
00:12:35Everything looks so veryrå
00:12:37Good day, bonjour!
00:12:38Come on, the trip
00:12:39Hey, stop!
00:12:41Wait!
00:12:48Oh, watch out!
00:12:50Where are you all going?
00:12:52To the Great Railway Show, of course.
00:12:55The Great Railway Show's not here.
00:12:57It's happening on the mainland.
00:13:00This is the island of Sodor.
00:13:02The island of...
00:13:04Oops.
00:13:08Everybody back on the ship!
00:13:11Back off! Back off!
00:13:13I'm coming!
00:13:15Big wait!
00:13:16The Great Railway Show?
00:13:18Are you really all going to the Great Railway?
00:13:21Get out of the way!
00:13:24Why don't you look where you're going, shrimp?
00:13:27I'm not the one going backwards.
00:13:31Why don't you take me with you?
00:13:33It looks like there's room for one more!
00:13:36Is somebody missing?
00:13:41No! No! Help!
00:13:43Thomas!
00:13:50Stop pulling!
00:13:52Stop pulling!
00:14:03Well now, what a rescue!
00:14:05What is it with all you Railway Show engines?
00:14:08Charging about like you own the tracks!
00:14:11What makes you so special anyway?
00:14:13Do you think you're better than all the other engines just because...
00:14:18I'm very sorry.
00:14:20I truly never meant to bump into you.
00:14:23I simply didn't realise you were behind me.
00:14:28Thank you for rescuing me.
00:14:31My name's Thomas. What's yours?
00:14:34Salty!
00:14:36Don't be silly, Thomas!
00:14:37She can't be called Salty!
00:14:40That's my name!
00:14:44My name's Ashima.
00:14:46Well...
00:14:47I mean...
00:14:49So...
00:14:50I can't stand around here all day.
00:14:52Thomas!
00:14:53Whoa!
00:14:55Some of us have a railway to run.
00:15:04Soon, Thomas was back in the yard, shunting trucks again.
00:15:09I don't get it.
00:15:11Why did she try to push you off the docks?
00:15:13I don't know, Percy.
00:15:15Maybe she was jealous.
00:15:19Or...
00:15:20Maybe she's just a very pushy engine.
00:15:23But...
00:15:23Then...
00:15:24Why did she rescue you?
00:15:26Don't ask me, Percy.
00:15:28I don't know anything about her.
00:15:34My advice to you, Thomas, is to keep away from her.
00:15:38Engines like that are nothing but trouble.
00:15:53But that afternoon, as Thomas was pulling the local with Annie and Clarabel...
00:16:02Oh no!
00:16:04It's her!
00:16:05Oh!
00:16:06Oh, Thomas!
00:16:07Thomas!
00:16:11Hello again!
00:16:12Hello.
00:16:13I thought you were going to the Great Railway Show.
00:16:16I was.
00:16:17But I missed the ferry.
00:16:19And I don't know how to get there by rail.
00:16:21Ooh!
00:16:22Thomas wants to go to the Great Railway Show!
00:16:25Maybe you could go together!
00:16:28Well...
00:16:28I don't think that's a very good idea, Annie.
00:16:31I'm probably not even going.
00:16:36You'll need to find another engine to go with.
00:16:38Not me.
00:16:44I do wish you two hadn't told her that I want to go to the Great Railway Show.
00:16:48But it's true!
00:16:49Well, what's so special about her, anyway?
00:16:52She's not fast, or big, or strong.
00:16:55I really don't see why she should get to go.
00:16:58Well, she was very beautifully painted.
00:17:01Quite right, dear.
00:17:02She looked stunning.
00:17:04All those bright colours!
00:17:06Bright colours?
00:17:07Beautifully painted?
00:17:09Big deal!
00:17:10Any engine can get themselves painted!
00:17:13And then, another idea flew into Thomas' funnel.
00:17:19Thomas!
00:17:24Ashima was very confused.
00:17:27She needed to get to the Railway Show.
00:17:31Ooh!
00:17:32Excuse me!
00:17:33But she didn't know which way to go.
00:17:37Hello?
00:17:39Or who to ask.
00:17:42Oh, dear.
00:17:51Thomas!
00:17:53Wait!
00:17:55Where are you?
00:17:55I'm busy!
00:17:56But I just wanted to ask you how to get to the mainland, please.
00:18:14Hello.
00:18:15Aren't you Thomas' coaches?
00:18:18Yes, we are.
00:18:20Or at least, we were.
00:18:21He cancelled our train and left us here on this siding.
00:18:25But where was he off to in such a terrible hurry?
00:18:28We don't know.
00:18:32Dum-dum-dum-dum-dum-dum-dum-dum.
00:18:36Streamlining.
00:18:38Whoa!
00:18:39Oh, Gordon.
00:18:40Whoa!
00:18:41Oh!
00:18:44I do wish you'd hurry up.
00:18:47At this rate, I'm not going to be ready for the Great Railway Show.
00:18:51It's a lot of work to streamline a steam engine, Gordon.
00:18:55You have to be patient.
00:18:57Victor!
00:18:58Victor!
00:19:00I've got a special job for you.
00:19:02I need to be repainted.
00:19:04I was thinking maybe lightning bolts.
00:19:06And racing stripes.
00:19:09And...
00:19:11You know...
00:19:12Surprise me!
00:19:14I'm afraid we're a little busy at the...
00:19:17This is important, Victor!
00:19:18It's for the Great Railway Show!
00:19:23Meanwhile, Diesel had a plan of his own.
00:19:28We have to do everything we can, Baxton.
00:19:31Oh, okay, Diesel.
00:19:34But I still don't see what your plan is.
00:19:37My plan is to make you look like a truck.
00:19:42One of my trucks.
00:19:44So that I look like I'm pulling a very, very heavy train.
00:19:49All by myself!
00:19:52If the Fat Controller thinks I'm stronger than Henry,
00:19:57he'll take me to the Great Railway Show instead of him!
00:20:03Hehehehe!
00:20:04I'm full of surprises!
00:20:06Are you singing, Diesel?
00:20:08They ought to say of me,
00:20:10I bring some razzle-dazzle to the yard.
00:20:15I'm full of surprises!
00:20:18As you can plainly see,
00:20:21I don't find being surprising all that hard.
00:20:24Some would probably say,
00:20:25I can't really see anything under here!
00:20:27I'm full of surprises!
00:20:29They ought to say of me,
00:20:31I bring some razzle-dazzle to the yard.
00:20:34I'm full of surprises!
00:20:37As you can plainly see,
00:20:38I don't find being surprising all that hard.
00:20:42Some would probably say,
00:20:46I'm only up to my old tricks.
00:20:49But I'd say,
00:20:51I'm a problem solver!
00:20:53Looking for a nice quick fix!
00:20:58Hehehehe!
00:21:00I'm full of surprises!
00:21:03They ought to say of me,
00:21:04I bring some razzle-dazzle to the rail.
00:21:08I'm full of surprises!
00:21:10As you can plainly see,
00:21:12I'm trusting my surprises to prevail.
00:21:15I hope this time being surprising doesn't fail!
00:21:18They used to call me devious!
00:21:23Because I had a bit of previous!
00:21:26Where someone will know!
00:21:27But please,
00:21:27you must be levious!
00:21:30I'm not that bad!
00:21:32Hehehehe!
00:21:34Well, maybe just a taste!
00:21:38Hehehehe!
00:21:39No!
00:21:40Wait!
00:21:41Come back here!
00:21:43Wait for me!
00:21:46Hehehehe!
00:21:47At the steamworks,
00:21:49everything had been set up
00:21:51so that Thomas could be repainted.
00:21:54When?
00:21:54Hello, Kevin!
00:21:56Victor!
00:21:57I was just wondering how Gordon was getting on.
00:22:00Oh no!
00:22:01Not now!
00:22:10Thomas!
00:22:12Surprise!
00:22:14I was going to tell you, sir.
00:22:17I had another idea for the railway show.
00:22:20Maybe you could send an engine painted with an exciting design!
00:22:28Oh yes!
00:22:30For the best decorated engine award!
00:22:33Clever you!
00:22:34Oh!
00:22:35But aren't you meant to be on your branch line right now?
00:22:41Annie!
00:22:43Clarabelle!
00:22:44I'm back!
00:22:45Sorry I'm late,
00:22:46but I just stopped off at the steamworks to see if...
00:22:49Annie?
00:22:51Clarabelle?
00:22:57Emily!
00:22:58Thomas!
00:22:59Have you heard the news?
00:23:01The Fat Controller says it's time to be repainted with decorations and...
00:23:05Hello, you two!
00:23:07Guess what I've just heard!
00:23:09The Fat Controller wants me to be repainted!
00:23:13You too, James?
00:23:15Are you going to the Great Railway Show?
00:23:18Yes, Emily, I am!
00:23:21It wouldn't be great for you, James.
00:23:22It wouldn't be great without me!
00:23:24Oh, wow!
00:23:25I'm going too!
00:23:27It looks like Thomas has been repainted as well!
00:23:30They didn't do a very good job, though.
00:23:34It was an accident.
00:23:36Have you seen Annie and Clarabelle anywhere?
00:23:38I left them on this siding, but...
00:23:40I saw them!
00:23:41That new engine was pulling them.
00:23:43You know, the painted one.
00:23:45From India.
00:23:46Ashima!
00:23:47That's the one!
00:23:48Isn't she great?
00:23:49OK, come on, James!
00:23:50See you later, Thomas!
00:24:01Ashima had taken Annie and Clarabelle back to Thomas' branch line.
00:24:06She was doing the job that Thomas was meant to be doing.
00:24:09Ashima!
00:24:10Thomas!
00:24:20Philip was right!
00:24:24Engines like you are nothing but trouble!
00:24:26What do you think you're doing running off with my coaches?
00:24:29Your coaches, Thomas!
00:24:30We're not your coaches!
00:24:33We're our own coaches, aren't we, Annie?
00:24:36Quite right, dear.
00:24:37And what was so important that you had to rush off like that, Thomas?
00:24:41Leaving us on a siding in...
00:24:43In the middle of nowhere!
00:24:45In the middle?
00:24:47In the middle of nowhere!
00:24:52I just...
00:24:54I'm sorry, but...
00:24:56I had something I needed to do.
00:24:59Come on, Ashima.
00:25:01Let's get going.
00:25:03I wanted to be repainted.
00:25:14I thought the Fat Controller would take me to the railway show...
00:25:18If I was decorated in some special way.
00:25:21What do you mean, Thomas?
00:25:23You mean...
00:25:24Like me?
00:25:25No.
00:25:26Not like you.
00:25:28Well...
00:25:29Yes.
00:25:31Sort of.
00:25:32You are a very funny little tank engine.
00:25:38Every engine that I ever knew...
00:25:42Was at least a little different from the others...
00:25:47And some were very, very different too...
00:25:52Even from their sisters and their bloggers...
00:25:59You can only be you...
00:26:02There's nothing else you can possibly do...
00:26:06It's plain to me...
00:26:08That you're trying too hard...
00:26:10So instead, just be who you are...
00:26:13I don't wanna be me!
00:26:15You wish you could be...
00:26:16Faster, bigger, stronger...
00:26:18You wish you could have more than six more wheels...
00:26:21You'd think if you were just a little longer...
00:26:26You'd have more railway show appeal...
00:26:29Of course!
00:26:30Every bit of me is short and stumpy...
00:26:33My funnel and my boiler and my dome...
00:26:37Can't you see my paintwork's old and frumpy?
00:26:41That's why I'll be the one who's left at home...
00:26:45Why do I have to be me?
00:26:48Is this what I'm really meant to be?
00:26:53Break me, shake me, take me all apart...
00:26:57There has to be a better place to start...
00:27:00Every bit of you is neat and tidy...
00:27:04There's nothing that you need to rearrange...
00:27:08If you ask me, you're completely bona fide...
00:27:12What makes you think there's anything to change?
00:27:15Why do I have to be me?
00:27:19Is this what I'm really meant to be?
00:27:24Calm down, be quiet...
00:27:27You know in your heart...
00:27:29There isn't any other place to start...
00:27:35Why do I have to be me?
00:27:38You can only be me...
00:27:39Is this what I'm really meant to be?
00:27:42There's nothing else you can do...
00:27:43Shake me, break me, take me all apart...
00:27:47And find a better place to start...
00:27:51You don't have to try...
00:27:53Just be who you are...
00:27:54And trust your six small wheels to take you far...
00:28:10Thomas, are you any good at shunting and sorting out trucks?
00:28:15Yes, I'm very good!
00:28:17But why are you asking that?
00:28:19Because you could enter the shunting competition!
00:28:22All the best shunting engines are going to the Great Railway Show too!
00:28:26They are?
00:28:35The next morning, Thomas woke up with a smile on his face...
00:28:41I'm going to work on my shunting!
00:28:43I'll show the Fat Controller what I can do best!
00:28:47He hurried into the yard at Knapford Station to get to work...
00:28:51Pull!
00:28:52Hey!
00:28:55Sorry about that!
00:28:57I didn't mean to surprise you, Thomas...
00:29:00But I'm afraid I can't help it!
00:29:02I'm full of surprises!
00:29:07Who's going to pull all those?
00:29:09Me, of course!
00:29:10But not until the Fat Controller arrives!
00:29:14I want to show him how strong I really am!
00:29:18But nobody can get in or out of the yard, Diesel!
00:29:21I have shunting to do!
00:29:23Haven't you ever heard of being patient, Thomas?
00:29:26But Thomas didn't have time to be patient!
00:29:29It was almost the day of the Great Railway Show!
00:29:32And the Fat Controller was choosing his engines!
00:29:36Ah, Percy!
00:29:37Erm, I'm looking for Thomas!
00:29:40Any idea where I might find him?
00:29:41I think he was heading out to the yard, sir, to shunt trucks!
00:29:46Hmm!
00:29:49As Diesel was refusing to move his long line of trucks,
00:29:53Thomas had decided to try to move them himself!
00:29:57Hello, Thomas!
00:29:59Hello, Ashima!
00:30:00I'm going to practice my shunting!
00:30:02But first, I need to get these trucks out of the way!
00:30:06Woo!
00:30:07These trucks are moving by themselves!
00:30:09That's right!
00:30:10I'm going to move them by myself!
00:30:14It's Diesel's signal!
00:30:16I didn't know Diesel had a whistle!
00:30:18Maybe it just sounds like a whistle under here!
00:30:22Let's start pushing!
00:30:23Huh?
00:30:26Huh?
00:30:26Sinkers and ashes!
00:30:28Either these trucks are a lot lighter than they look,
00:30:31or else they're moving by themselves!
00:30:35Whoa!
00:30:36Stop pushing!
00:30:38I say, look at Thomas!
00:30:42I knew he was good at shunting, but I never knew he was so strong!
00:30:46Whoa!
00:30:47Whoa!
00:30:48No, Thomas!
00:30:49What are you doing?
00:30:50You're going to spoil my trick!
00:30:54Whoa!
00:30:55Stop!
00:30:56Thomas!
00:30:57Whoa!
00:30:58Whoa!
00:31:10It was the day of the Great Railway Show.
00:31:13The Fat Controller had selected all the engines that he wanted to take with him.
00:31:18Ta-da!
00:31:20You both look amazing!
00:31:23I'm coming too!
00:31:26I'm going to carry the flag!
00:31:28Gordon, hold still!
00:31:30The men still have to complete their final safety check!
00:31:33Well, you're taking too long!
00:31:36Everyone else is ready, and I'm not!
00:31:40Gordon, wait!
00:31:42No, I'm not waiting!
00:31:44I have a race to win!
00:31:58What's that, Gordon?
00:32:00On the side of you?
00:32:02That is my new emblem!
00:32:04I'm not called Gordon anymore!
00:32:07From now on, I shall be known as the Shooting Star!
00:32:15Wow!
00:32:16The Shooting Star!
00:32:18That's right, little fellow!
00:32:21Just wait until my brother sees me!
00:32:27Meanwhile, back at the Diesel Works, Diesel had some problems of his own!
00:32:32You should have known it was Thomas pulling you, and not me!
00:32:40Does that sound like a steamies whistle?
00:32:44Peep, peep!
00:32:45But it is very hard to hear when you're under a crate, Diesel!
00:32:49All to say...
00:32:50Stop making excuses!
00:32:53If I was under a crate, I'd be able to...
00:32:59Ow!
00:33:00Get it off!
00:33:02Get it off!
00:33:06Wow!
00:33:07He's disappeared!
00:33:09He really is full of surprises!
00:33:12No, I'm not!
00:33:13Get me down!
00:33:15Get me down!
00:33:18Hmm?
00:33:19Ouch!
00:33:21Get me out of here!
00:33:26Oh!
00:33:27Ow!
00:33:28Oh!
00:33:29Oh!
00:33:30Oh!
00:33:30Oh!
00:33:30Oh!
00:33:31Oh!
00:33:31Oh!
00:33:32Oh!
00:33:34Holy fuck!
00:33:35We all realize how eager you were to take part in the Great Railway show, Thomas...
00:33:41But you should have known better than to pull so many trucks on your own!
00:33:46No wonder you had an accident!
00:33:49Yes, sir!
00:33:50I'm sorry, sir, but it's not as bad as it looks, either.
00:33:55Of course, I didn't realize how strong you actually are.
00:33:58I had been thinking of you for the shunting challenge!
00:34:01The shunting challenge? Yes, sir. I'd love to take part in the shunting challenge. Thank you.
00:34:07But Thomas, you can't take part now. You need to be repaired, and the rest of the engines are ready
00:34:15to go.
00:34:16Honestly, sir, it's only my buffers and a few dents. I can still shunt trucks, sir. That's what I'm best
00:34:23at.
00:34:24I know that, Thomas. But Percy will represent Sodor in the shunting challenge today.
00:34:32Me? But...
00:34:33That's right, Percy. Come along. The other engines are waiting.
00:34:37Oh, Thomas. I really don't want to do this. You're much better at shunting than I am.
00:34:43Oh, I'm so sorry you can't go.
00:34:46And I'm sorry too, Ashima.
00:34:50Come on, Percy. We're waiting.
00:34:56This is all so terribly unfair.
00:34:59That accident at Knapford wasn't your fault, Thomas.
00:35:02There was something funny about those trucks.
00:35:05If everybody's ready, let's go to the show.
00:35:12I think I'd better follow them.
00:35:15I don't want to get lost again.
00:35:19Goodbye, Thomas.
00:35:21Goodbye, Ashima.
00:35:22And good luck.
00:35:32S-O-D-O-R. What does that spell?
00:35:35Sodor!
00:35:44Come on, Sodor!
00:35:46Yes, the Sonor!
00:35:52Yes, the Sonor!
00:36:00Now, welcome, one and all.
00:36:03We have a full program of events today, starting shortly and featuring the most incredible locomotives
00:36:12from every corner of the globe.
00:36:14Take your time to look around and admire the engines.
00:36:19This is going to be a day to remember.
00:36:24Well, we're here, so good luck, everybody, and may the best engines win!
00:36:33Thanks, Ashima.
00:36:34Thanks, Ashima.
00:36:34Good luck to you, too.
00:36:36Our first event, the Test of Strength, will take place in the Southwestern Yard at 12.30pm,
00:36:44followed by the Parade of Decorated Engines, which we expect to begin passing through the
00:36:49Main Yard from 1 o'clock.
00:36:52Where am I supposed to go?
00:36:55Right, right, right.
00:36:56Our finalist space car will take a new battle of space records.
00:37:01We'll take a new battle of space records.
00:37:02We'll take a new battle of space records.
00:37:03We'll take a new battle of space records.
00:37:03Hello, brother.
00:37:06Gordon?
00:37:07Is that you?
00:37:08I didn't recognize you at all.
00:37:11I'm called the Shooting Star now.
00:37:14Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:37:15Don't be ridiculous.
00:37:17Sir, you won't think that I'm ridiculous
00:37:19when I win the Great Ritz.
00:37:22Hmph!
00:37:27We certainly have some strong contenders,
00:37:30and we may be in for a bit of a shock,
00:37:32if you know what I mean.
00:37:34The atmosphere here is certainly electric.
00:37:40Back at the steamworks on Sodor,
00:37:42Thomas was still feeling rather sorry for himself.
00:37:46You're not the only engine
00:37:48who's had to stay behind, my friend.
00:37:51Look at me.
00:37:52I'm still here.
00:37:53And there are plenty of other engines
00:37:56working all over the island.
00:37:57Boss, excuse me.
00:37:58The fat controller still has a railway to run, you know.
00:38:01Please, boss.
00:38:01I have a question.
00:38:03What's so important that you have to keep interrupting?
00:38:06Uh, what?
00:38:08What's this?
00:38:09That's Gordon's safety valve mechanism.
00:38:12Yes.
00:38:12That's what I thought it was.
00:38:16Gordon's safety valve?
00:38:18But that means Gordon hasn't been reassembled properly.
00:38:21I told him to wait for his safety check.
00:38:24If Gordon's safety valve isn't working properly,
00:38:26he could overheat,
00:38:28especially at high speeds.
00:38:30Gordon needs that part right now.
00:38:33Take it to him, Victor.
00:38:35Just go.
00:38:36I can't take it, Thomas.
00:38:37Thomas, the only one here who can take it is you.
00:38:46So even though he wasn't fully repaired,
00:38:49Thomas was sent to take Gordon the part he needed.
00:38:55He raced right through Vicarstown to get to the bridge.
00:39:01But then there was trouble.
00:39:04Oh, no!
00:39:08I've got to get across!
00:39:11I can't stop now!
00:39:26I did it!
00:39:29I did it!
00:39:30Thomas?
00:39:33Uh-oh.
00:39:36Cinders and ashes!
00:40:01I really must stop doing that.
00:40:11Would Mrs. Kindly please return to the refreshment tent near track 5?
00:40:17Mrs. Kindly to the refreshment tent...
00:40:19Oh, why did the Fat Controller ask me to do this?
00:40:23There's no way I'm going to win my event.
00:40:26Well, I'm going to win mine.
00:40:29I've found the track for the Great Race.
00:40:31Come on, Shooting Star, follow me!
00:40:37Sorry, couldn't see you there.
00:40:38Yeah?
00:40:39Well, you'd better watch where you're going, Shorty,
00:40:42or you might end up being recycled.
00:40:50At last, Thomas arrived at the show.
00:40:54Boss, my buffers!
00:40:56This place is even bigger than I thought it would be.
00:40:59So many engines!
00:41:02How am I going to find...
00:41:04Gordon?
00:41:06Gordon!
00:41:08Thank goodness I found...
00:41:11Oh.
00:41:12You're not Gordon.
00:41:14Do I look like a Gordon?
00:41:17My name is Frida.
00:41:20And they're about to be set the challenge of a lifetime!
00:41:24The test of strength!
00:41:27The test of strength!
00:41:27The test of strength!
00:41:28And there they go!
00:41:30Some of the mightiest, most formidable machines known to live!
00:41:34Come on, Henry!
00:41:35Pull!
00:41:36Pull!
00:41:37It's in their tracks!
00:41:39Look at that!
00:41:40The remote pistons!
00:41:42Put them all together, and they could move a mountain!
00:41:46Gordon!
00:41:48Gordon!
00:41:50Come back!
00:41:52I have something important to give to you!
00:41:55Gordon!
00:41:57Gordon!
00:42:01Wait!
00:42:03Thomas? What are you doing here?
00:42:06Thomas?
00:42:07Hi! I'm trying...
00:42:09to get to Gordon.
00:42:12I have to give him something important.
00:42:22How did you get on in the strongest engine competition, Henry?
00:42:26Oh, I came fifth.
00:42:29Wow! That's great!
00:42:31There were only five engines.
00:42:35And I've just been handed a piece of very exciting news.
00:42:39The winner of the best decorated engine is...
00:42:43Oh, thank you. Thank you. You're too kind.
00:42:45From India...
00:42:46Huh? India?
00:42:48Rajee!
00:42:49And for a splendid engine race,
00:42:52far to imagine an engine more splendid than that.
00:42:57Honestly, that should have been me.
00:43:00Poor Ishma!
00:43:02Why weren't you in the parade?
00:43:05I'm competing in the shunting challenge, Emily.
00:43:08Just because we're well painted doesn't mean we can't do anything else.
00:43:20Henry!
00:43:21Percy!
00:43:22Philip!
00:43:23It's Thomas!
00:43:27Hello, Thomas!
00:43:28I need to find Gordon urgently.
00:43:30It's an emergency.
00:43:32I saw him before, but now I've lost him again.
00:43:34That's because his race is about to begin.
00:43:37Haven't you heard?
00:43:38The Great Race is about to begin in two minutes, ladies and gentlemen.
00:43:43No!
00:43:43How did you make your voice do that, Philip?
00:43:45He can't race.
00:43:46He hasn't got his safety valve.
00:43:49His boiler could explode.
00:43:50Explode?
00:43:51Oh, no!
00:43:53Smiley!
00:43:55Ladies and gentlemen, the engines are lined up now for the start of the Great Race.
00:44:00And what a line-up it is!
00:44:02These are some of the fastest locomotives to be found on modern railways.
00:44:06On track one, we have the French diesel-electric Etienne,
00:44:11who will be trying to beat his own world record today.
00:44:14Next to him, we have Spencer.
00:44:16And just listen to the local fans for a while!
00:44:19No, no!
00:44:21Thank you!
00:44:26Good luck, little brother.
00:44:29I don't think I'm the one who needs luck.
00:44:33Gordon!
00:44:35Gordon!
00:44:36Thank goodness I found...
00:44:37Stop calling me that!
00:44:39My name is Shooting Star.
00:44:42Okay, sorry, Gordon.
00:44:44I mean, Falling Star.
00:44:46But you have to listen to me.
00:44:48Victor says your safety valve hasn't been reassembled properly.
00:44:52Oh, nonsense, Thomas.
00:44:53There's no time for this.
00:44:55The race is starting.
00:44:59Now!
00:45:00No, Gordon!
00:45:01Wait!
00:45:02You mustn't race!
00:45:03Oh, what's this?
00:45:04There's a little tank engine out there, bud!
00:45:08You can overheat!
00:45:09You can overheat!
00:45:10Your boiling could blow up!
00:45:11Oh, Thomas, will you stop your whining?
00:45:14There's no other engine I won't be outshining.
00:45:17Too late!
00:45:18I've got a date!
00:45:20Streamlining!
00:45:23Whoosh!
00:45:24Whoosh!
00:45:24The shooting star is coming through!
00:45:26Whoosh!
00:45:27Give up!
00:45:27There's nothing you can do!
00:45:29Whoosh!
00:45:30Cause all you'll ever see of me will be a shining streak of racing blue!
00:45:34Whoosh!
00:45:38My clouds today all have a silver lining!
00:45:41I'll see my bossy brother get some undermining!
00:45:44Cause I'm the cream!
00:45:46The best in steam streamlining!
00:45:49Oh!
00:45:50Oh!
00:45:52Oh!
00:45:53Oh!
00:45:56Gordon!
00:45:57Gordon!
00:45:58That's not my name!
00:46:00You have to stop!
00:46:02Listen to me, Gordon!
00:46:03There's something wrong!
00:46:04I can't stop!
00:46:06I won't stop!
00:46:08Now, I don't know what's happening, but...
00:46:10It looks like the shooting star is having some kind of trouble!
00:46:17Whoosh!
00:46:18Whoosh!
00:46:18The shooting star is coming through!
00:46:20Whoosh!
00:46:21Give up!
00:46:21There's nothing you can do!
00:46:23I think it's all over!
00:46:24Cause all you'll see of me will be...
00:46:27Whoosh!
00:46:28Whoosh!
00:46:29Whoosh!
00:46:30It is now!
00:46:32His spoiler has passed!
00:46:35He's slowing down!
00:46:39And the shooting star is out of the race!
00:46:43What a tragedy!
00:46:45Oh!
00:46:47The indignity!
00:46:49So it's Spencer in the lead!
00:46:51Etienne coming up behind!
00:46:53Followed by Axel of Belgium and the flying Scotsman!
00:46:56And as they approach the finish line, it looks like Spencer's going to take it!
00:47:00But wait!
00:47:00Etienne is coming up fast now!
00:47:02Au revoir!
00:47:04And it overtakes Spencer as they cross the line!
00:47:06The winner is Etienne!
00:47:09The French diesel electric setting a new world rail speed record here today!
00:47:22Come on Percy!
00:47:24You're our only hope!
00:47:26Sodor hasn't won anything yet!
00:47:28No!
00:47:29I don't want to!
00:47:30I'm too nervous!
00:47:32Thomas!
00:47:32And anyway!
00:47:33Thomas is here!
00:47:35He's the one who should be in the shunting challenge Emily!
00:47:38Not me!
00:47:39No!
00:47:39There he is!
00:47:40Thomas!
00:47:41Thomas!
00:47:42Oh!
00:47:44You again!
00:47:46Um...
00:47:47Sorry!
00:47:49Ah!
00:47:53Fizzling Puegos!
00:48:05That really does it!
00:48:10So, there are all these different trucks all over the yard, Thomas.
00:48:13That's right. And you have to sort them into flatbeds, boxcars and tankers,
00:48:19arranging three of each type on your sidings, plus a brake van and...
00:48:23Are you listening, Thomas? You need to be ready.
00:48:28Me? Why me? Percy's the one who's competing, not me.
00:48:33No, Thomas, I don't want to. I might lose.
00:48:36Nonsense, Percy. You can do anything if you put your mind to it. Just... be who you are.
00:48:44I am being me, Thomas. And I want you to do the shunting challenge. I really, really do.
00:48:52But look at me. I can't possibly compete.
00:48:55Please, Thomas. You're Sodor's only hope.
00:48:58Ladies and gentlemen, there's still one more big event here at the Great Railway Show.
00:49:03OK. I'll do it. But I might lose, too, you know.
00:49:11You? But you're not going to lose. Are you, Thomas?
00:49:18The shunting challenge!
00:49:21Trucks and brake vans are arranged on the rails, ready to be shunted into line.
00:49:27The engines are already lining up for a test of not just speed, but quick thinking and agility.
00:49:33Thomas! You're here!
00:49:37Concentrate, Thomas. They're about to begin. This is Sodor's last chance.
00:49:45This is going to be interesting.
00:49:47Go, Thomas! Go!
00:49:50Do it, Thomas!
00:49:51The flatbeds! Get the flatbeds! Over there!
00:49:56Boys!
00:49:56I was going for those!
00:50:01It's a competition, silly!
00:50:03It's a race!
00:50:05Boys!
00:50:07Boys!
00:50:09Boys!
00:50:12Boys!
00:50:15Boys!
00:50:16Boys!
00:50:17Boys!
00:50:23Boys!
00:50:24Boys!
00:50:27Thomas!
00:50:29Thomas!
00:50:29And it's Thomas!
00:50:30Look at him go!
00:50:33And the little blue tank engine Thomas
00:50:35is back in the race!
00:50:37Come on, Jimmy!
00:50:40Hold on, there's a disruption on the track!
00:50:43What are you doing?
00:50:44I'm trying to get away!
00:50:46Points!
00:50:47And another one!
00:50:48Everything will have to be halting!
00:50:53Philip, look out!
00:50:59Oh dear, Shorty!
00:51:02Looks like the race is over for you!
00:51:05Ah, yes!
00:51:07But this wasn't really a proper race!
00:51:10I'm very good at proper races!
00:51:13Ask Shooting Star!
00:51:15Huh?
00:51:16You leave my friend alone,
00:51:19you big bully!
00:51:23So, you wanna play tug of war, do you?
00:51:28Yes!
00:51:29Ball, Thomas!
00:51:31Oh, oh!
00:51:32You got me!
00:51:34Points!
00:51:37Huh?
00:51:39Go, Philip!
00:51:40Hey!
00:51:42Na na na na na na na!
00:51:45Woah!
00:51:47Woah!
00:51:49Woah!
00:51:50Agh!
00:51:51Get it off me!
00:51:53Take that, big bully!
00:51:55Thomas!
00:51:56Watch out!
00:52:08Thanks.
00:52:10No need to be thanking me, Thomas.
00:52:12After all, I am still going to beat you
00:52:15in the shunting challenge.
00:52:16You are not.
00:52:18Yes, I am.
00:52:19Hey, are you gonna get me out of here or what?
00:52:24Points!
00:52:27Points!
00:52:31Points!
00:52:32And...
00:52:32Gemma Thomas!
00:52:36This is what competitive shouting is all about.
00:52:39All I need is my breakback.
00:52:41Ha ha ha, that's all I need too.
00:52:44And it looks like Thomas and Ashima
00:52:46are down to their last tracks.
00:52:48Points!
00:52:49The first step in this position,
00:52:50the breakback will take out the trophy
00:52:52and it looks like Thomas will lead every time.
00:52:55Oh!
00:52:56Ashima, look out!
00:52:58Your track is blocked!
00:53:00Points!
00:53:01Points!
00:53:02Hold on!
00:53:03He switches tracks!
00:53:04Thomas!
00:53:05What are you doing?
00:53:07You...
00:53:07Thomas!
00:53:09I don't believe it!
00:53:10He smacked!
00:53:11Ranges to a zero!
00:53:13Ashima is taking the link
00:53:15and Ashima is fast past the boat!
00:53:18The Painted Tank Engine from India has raised all...
00:53:21He was winning!
00:53:23I told him she was trouble.
00:53:25What an amazing finish, folks!
00:53:27At the last minute,
00:53:28Thomas the Tank Engine from Sodor
00:53:30seemed to forfeit the race
00:53:32to the little Painted 18, Ashima.
00:53:34Thomas!
00:53:36You...
00:53:37You let me win!
00:53:39I know!
00:53:40But...
00:53:40It wouldn't have been fair!
00:53:42Your track was blocked!
00:53:44But...
00:53:45I wouldn't have minded if you had won, Thomas!
00:53:48Uh...
00:53:49Wait a minute!
00:53:49What's...
00:53:50What's this?
00:53:50The...
00:53:51The judges seem to be questioning the result!
00:53:54Oh, ladies and gentlemen,
00:53:55this is...
00:53:56This is quite exceptional!
00:53:58The...
00:53:58The judges are about to make a special announcement!
00:54:02With regard to the unusual events
00:54:04during the final moments of the shunting challenge,
00:54:07we would like to declare there to be two winners!
00:54:11Ha!
00:54:12Ashima, the Tank Engine from India,
00:54:14for completing the challenge in the fastest time!
00:54:17And...
00:54:18In light of the sacrifice and efforts he has made
00:54:20to help another engine...
00:54:23Thomas the Tank Engine from Sodor!
00:54:26It's a win!
00:54:28Congratulations, Thomas!
00:54:30Ha ha ha!
00:54:32Congratulations to you too!
00:54:33Thomas the Tank Engine!
00:54:36I didn't realise that you were even here
00:54:39until after the shunting challenge started!
00:54:41I only came to bring Gordon his safety valve, sir,
00:54:44but I was too late!
00:54:46And then...
00:54:47Percy asked me if I would race in his place!
00:54:49You mean...
00:54:50You were trying to be really useful?
00:54:53Is that what you're saying?
00:54:55Well...
00:54:56Congratulations, Thomas!
00:54:58Because you were!
00:55:00Hooray!
00:55:01Hooray!
00:55:01Hooray!
00:55:02He was just being himself, sir!
00:55:06You can only be you...
00:55:09There's nothing else you can possibly do...
00:55:14But... where's Ashima? She didn't say goodbye.
00:55:22So the last of the big events are over for today, ladies and gentlemen.
00:55:29Hey, Shooting Star!
00:55:31Just call me Gordon. I've had quite enough of this streamlining lark.
00:55:37Shame about the race, little brother.
00:55:39But you know, you engines from Sodor are made of sterner stuff than I'd thought.
00:55:47Why do you always have to call me little brother? We're exactly the same size!
00:56:11I've looked all around, Thomas, but I can't see her.
00:56:15I don't know where she is.
00:56:18All right, everybody. Fill up those boilers and coal bunkers.
00:56:22It's time we went back to Sodor. We still have a railway to run.
00:56:28Yes, sir. Of course, sir.
00:56:42Ashima! I thought maybe... you'd gone.
00:56:46You didn't think I'd leave without saying goodbye, did you?
00:56:51But... I do have to catch that ferry and go home.
00:56:55Oh, but that means we don't have to say goodbye yet.
00:56:59You can come back to Sodor and catch your rail ferry from there.
00:57:03It stops in Brendam Dogs, remember?
00:57:06Good idea! You are clever. Sometimes.
00:57:10I can only be me. There's nothing else I can possibly be.
00:57:17And now I'm happy. I am who I am. I'll be the best me that I can.
00:57:25You don't need to be faster, bigger, stronger. You don't need more than six more wheels.
00:57:33I don't need to be taller or be longer. Being me now has its own appeal.
00:57:42Be who you are and go far, go far. Be who you are and go far.
00:57:49Be who you are and go fast, go far. Be who you are and go far.
00:57:56We don't need to be faster, bigger, stronger. We don't need more than six more wheels.
00:58:05We don't need to be taller or be longer. Being me now has its own appeal.
00:58:14Be who you are and go far, go far. Be who you are and go fast, go far.
00:58:26Be who you are and go far.
00:58:41Try another one cranky
00:58:46No
00:58:48He's not under that one
00:58:51Come on
00:58:54That's a good one
00:58:56Oh, no, not there. Are you sure he came down here?
00:59:03Yes, we were following him. Everybody look for a talking crate
00:59:10Diesel! Hold on. Hey, where are you?
00:59:16Diesel!
00:59:19Excuse me
00:59:22Diesel!
00:59:22Diesel?
00:59:26Get out, Diesel!
00:59:29Diesel!
00:59:36Over here!
00:59:45I'm full of surprises
00:59:49He's full of surprises, just like he'll always be
00:59:53He brings some razzle dazzle to the yard
00:59:57He's full of surprises, as you can plainly see
01:00:00He don't find being surprising all that hard
01:00:04Some would probably say
01:00:07He's only up to his old tricks
01:00:11But he'd say he's a problem solver
01:00:16Looking for a nice quick fix
01:00:23He's full of surprises, just like he'll always be
01:00:27He brings some razzle dazzle to the round
01:00:31He's full of surprises, as you can plainly see
01:00:35He's trusting his surprises to prevail
01:00:38He hopes his time being surprising doesn't fail
01:00:42He hopes his time being surprising doesn't fail
01:00:42They used to call him devious
01:00:46Because he had a bit of previous
01:00:49But please, you must believe us
01:00:54He's not that bad
01:00:57Well, maybe just a tad
01:01:09By purchasing this
