00:00One day, Edward was in the shed where he lived with the other engines.
00:09They were all bigger than Edward and boasted about it.
00:12The driver won't choose you again, said Gordon.
00:15He wants strong engines like us.
00:21But the driver and fireman felt sorry for Edward.
00:25Would you like to come out today?
00:27Oh, yes, please, said Edward.
00:30So they lit his fire, made lots of steam, and Edward puffed away.
00:38The other engines were very cross at being left behind.
00:57Edward worked hard all day.
00:59The coaches thought he was very kind, and the driver was very pleased.
01:09I'm going out again tomorrow, Edward told the other engines that night.
01:13What do you think of that?
01:15But he didn't hear what they thought, for he was so tired and happy that he fell asleep at once.
01:23Next morning, Edward woke up to find nothing had changed.
01:27Gordon was still boasting.
01:29You watch me, little Edward, as I rush through at the express.
01:32That will be a splendid sight for you.
01:35Goodbye, little Edward.
01:36Edward, look out for me this afternoon.
01:44Edward went off to do some shunting.
01:47He liked shunting.
01:48It was fun playing with freight cars.
01:51He would come up quietly and give them a push.
01:53Then he would stop, and the silly freight cars would go bump into each other.
01:57Oh, they cried.
02:00Whatever is happening?
02:10Edward played till there were no more freight cars.
02:13Then he stopped to rest.
02:15Presently, he heard a whistle.
02:20Gordon was cross.
02:21Instead of nice shining coaches, he was pulling a dirty freight train.
02:25A freight train!
02:26A freight train!
02:27A freight train!
02:28He grumbled.
02:32The shame of it!
02:33The shame of it!
02:34Oh, the shame of it!
02:36Edward laughed and went to find some more freight cars.
02:40Then there was trouble.
02:42Gordon can't get up the hill, the porter called to Edward's drive.
02:45Will you take Edward and push him, please?
02:51They found Gordon halfway up and very cross.
02:55His driver and fireman were talking to him severely.
02:59You're not trying.
03:00I can't do it, said Gordon.
03:02The noisy freight cars hold an engine back so.
03:06Edward's driver came up.
03:07We've come to push.
03:09No use at all, said Gordon.
03:11You wait and see, replied Edward's driver.
03:13They brought the train back to the bottom of the hill.
03:23I'm ready, said Edward.
03:24No good, grumbled Gordon.
03:26They pulled and pushed as hard as they could.
03:28I can't do it, I can't do it, puffed Gordon.
03:42I will do it, I will do it, I will do it, puffed Edward.
03:47Edward pushed and puffed and puffed and pushed as hard as ever he could.
03:52And almost before he realized it, Gordon found himself at the top of the hill.
03:57I've done it, I've done it, I've done it, he said proudly.
04:02He forgot all about kind Edward and didn't say thank you.
04:07Edward was left out of breath and far behind.
04:10But he was happy because he had been so helpful.
04:13At the next station, he found that the driver and fireman were very pleased with him.
04:19The fireman gave him a nice long drink, and the driver said,
