00:00Oliver and his brake van Toad liked working in the big yards,

00:04but one morning Toad noticed that Oliver was unhappy.

00:07He decided to find out why.

00:09Excuse me, Mr. Oliver, it seems to me that things are not well with you,

00:14if you forgive me for mentioning it.

00:16You're quite right, Toad, replied Oliver.

00:19All I do is shunt these trucks onto the turntable.

00:22I long for a nice run.

00:24It's what an engine really needs.

00:26Quite so, Mr. Oliver.

00:28May I suggest that you speak to the fat controller about your problems?

00:35Oliver just grew unhappier.

00:38And he was rough with the trucks.

00:40You're no good, Oliver. You're dangerous. We want Percy.

00:44Pa. Percy's far too busy to be bothered with the likes of you.

00:48And he bumped the trucks hard.

00:55You silly engine! shouted a workman.

00:58It'll take a long time to repair this turntable, which will cause confusion and delay.

01:05That night, the fat controller came to see Oliver in his shed.

01:09Oliver, you have caused confusion.

01:12I thought you could control trucks.

01:14You shall work the mail train for a while.

01:16Maybe the nighter will clear your smoke box.

01:18Yes, sir. Sorry, sir, said Oliver sadly.

01:22Cheer up, old chap, said his driver.

01:24The mail train run is a grand run for a fine engine like you.

01:28Oliver smiled, but he still felt he'd let everyone down.

01:33His driver took them along the coastal run with the mail train.

01:36The sea was calm, and the fresh air couldn't help but brighten Oliver's spirits.

01:41They made good speed until it was time to collect some important mail from Harold the helicopter.

01:53Come on, Harold.

01:57They waited and waited.

02:00At last, Harold landed.

02:03Sorry I'm late, Great Western.

02:04Had a bit of a problem with one of my arms.

02:06Kept letting me down when I was meant to be up.

02:08You know how it is, said Harold.

02:10We know that we'll be late for our first run, replied Oliver's driver.

02:14Soon they were on their way again.

02:18Ahead was a red signal light.

02:24Oliver didn't realise that the signalmen had dozed off waiting for them.

02:30Oliver whistled several times, but the signal stayed red.

02:34There must be something wrong with that signal.

02:37We'll go slowly and stop by the signal box, said his driver.

02:44But they never reached it.

02:47The points before the signal box were switched to an old track.

02:51They were going the wrong way.

02:54Oliver's fireman was concerned.

02:57We need to find a water tower soon.

03:00Instead, they saw an old run-down station.

03:05Disaster lay ahead.

03:14Meanwhile, the fat controller was very worried.

03:21Oliver has not returned.

03:22We had better send out a search party.

03:26Soon he was high in the sky with Harold.

03:33There they are.

03:35It wasn't Oliver's fault, sighed the driver.

03:50I'm aware of that.

03:51I'm just glad you were all safe.

03:54Then he saw something.

03:56It was an empty old house beside the station.

03:59He went to inspect it.

04:00When he returned, he spoke to Oliver.

04:10Oliver, you have found another attraction for our island.

04:13We'll make this house as good as new

04:15and visitors can come and have tea and crumpets there.

04:19Mmm, sighed Oliver happily.

04:21Getting lost can be interesting,

04:23but being found is much nicer,

04:26especially when it makes an engine feel really useful.
