00:03Goods trains, goods trains, he muttered.
00:07Oh, the shame of it.
00:11And he bumped the trucks again.
00:15Ow, ow, ow, cried the trucks as he shunted them around the yard.
00:22James was standing nearby watching him.
00:27Trucks will be trucks, he said.
00:32They won't with me, grunted Gordon. I'll teach them.
00:38They tried to push me down the hill this morning, he explained.
00:43It's slippery there, so you'll probably need help.
00:48I don't need help on hills, huffed James.
00:54Gordon laughed.
00:55And headed off to get ready for his next goods train.
01:00Come on, James, said his driver.
01:02It's almost time for the express.
01:07And with that, James puffed away to collect his waiting coaches.
01:19The guard soon blew his whistle and James puffed away.
01:26Come on, come on, he puffed to the coaches.
01:38All right.
01:45I've got hormones.
01:45St所以幾ンヹets ran into Gladwell.
01:45I have no gift.
01:45I am ashamed.
01:48This is a butcher in the weeds with echoed the Microfrogs.
01:48We're here.
01:48We're here.
01:48We're here.
01:49He P futurist.
01:50We're here.
01:50We're here.
01:52Amigo rundvator to the jos krit.
01:55So
02:36The train was soon running nicely, and James began to feel confident.
02:44Slippery hills indeed. I don't need help, he puffed.
03:20Slippery hills.
03:28So
03:58So
04:31I don't know.
05:07I don't know.
05:26Let's go.
06:38James soon arrived at the next station.
06:42He was feeling very pleased with himself, but he kept thinking about what Gordon had said.
06:50I'll show Gordon who needs help on hills, he said to himself.
07:06But soon, James reached the bottom of the hill.
07:10Strong winds from the sea made the hill hard to climb.
07:14Leaves fallen from the nearby trees were now covering the rails.
07:18And the recent rainfall meant that they were too heavy to be blown away by the wind.
07:25I'll do it! I'll do it! he puffed.
07:30But his wheels slipped on the leaves.
07:36I must do it! I must do it! he panted.
07:47Help! Help! cried James.
07:57His wheels were turning forwards, but the heavy coaches pulled him backwards.
08:01And soon the whole train started slipping down the hill.
08:08James' driver applied the brakes.
08:10Then going carefully, reversed the train back down the hill.
08:14And they headed back to the station.
08:23When they arrived, they found Gordon waiting, who had seen everything.
08:31I thought you said you could climb hills, he chuckled.
08:37James didn't answer.
08:39He had no steam left to say anything.
08:44Ah, well, we live and learn, said Gordon.
08:48Never mind, little James.
08:50I'm going to push from behind.
08:53Whistle when you're ready.
09:00Whomp! Whomp! Whomp!
09:03Whomp! Whomp!
09:18Whomp! Whomp! Whomp! Whomp!
09:21Whomp! Whomp! Whomp! Whomp!
10:42I'm ready, called James.
10:46So am I, replied Gordon.
10:50Pull hard.
10:53We'll do it.
10:55Puff James.
11:22Puff James.
11:29So
12:06Clouds of smoke and steam towered from the snorting engines as they struggled up the hill.
12:14We can do it, puffed James.
12:18We will do it, puffed Gordon.
12:24Finally, the two engines reached the top.
12:30We've done it, we've done it, they puffed.
12:35The two weary engines were puffed up, but they continued onwards to the next station.

13:03Before we take a look, we're done.
13:04It's a mushroom
13:05and you can take it away from the early days of summer.

13:09It's really nice, it's really hot from now to the end of the day.h
13:17So
13:19here's the bears. No
13:21UAconf
13:23So
14:33And it wasn't long before they arrived.
14:38Thank you, Gordon, whistled James.
14:44Gordon whistled goodbye as he watched James puff away.
14:48Then slowly, he trundled back to his waiting trucks.
15:02Jack Frost
15:06One evening, Sir Topham Hatt came to the sheds.
15:12There's a big freeze coming tonight, he said.
15:16James and Percy, I need you to deliver extra coal to the stations.
15:23Yes, sir, they said eagerly, and Sir Topham Hatt walked away.
15:29You better hurry, teased Thomas, or scary Jack Frost might get you.
15:36Who's Jack Frost? Percy said nervously.
15:42Don't be silly, sniffed James.
15:45Jack Frost is not scary.
15:49Yes, he is, teased Thomas.
15:52He's all white with a big spiky face.
15:58Rubbish, said James.
16:02James knew Jack Frost wasn't scary, but poor Percy wasn't so sure.
16:13Later that night, James had collected his coal trucks and set off to make his deliveries.
16:22Silly Percy, he thought.
16:24All steamed up over Jack Frost.
16:27The sooner we get this coal delivered, the sooner I can get back to my nice warm shed.

16:59So, let's go.
18:04So
22:22We've reached our first stop.
22:23Let's drop off some of the coal trucks.
22:31That's one delivery complete, so let's head to our next stop.
25:29Here's our next station.
25:32Let's drop off some more coal.
25:38That's another delivery complete.
25:41Hopefully, all this coal is enough to keep the passengers nice and warm during this cold weather.
25:47I'm just glad that I'm just glad that I'm just glad that I have my firebox to keep me from
25:50getting too cold.
32:21I don't know, but I don't know.
32:56This is the end of the day of the day of the day of the day of the day.
34:51Percy soon made his last delivery.
34:54The stationmaster was very pleased to see him.
35:00Percy, he cried.
35:01We need twice as much coal to last through this freeze.
35:07Don't worry, Percy said.
35:09This is my last stop.
35:11You can have mine.
35:12My lovely warm firebox will keep me nice and cosy.
35:18So Percy's driver parked him on a siding with only a lantern for company.
35:25Do you think scary Jack Frost will find me?
35:29Said Percy.
35:32Jack Frost is not scary, chuckled his driver.
35:36Don't worry.
35:37Emily will bring you some more coal in the morning.
35:42And then his driver and fireman went home to bed.
35:47Late that night, the icy wind howled.
35:51It started to snow.
35:53And Percy's fire had almost gone out.
35:58Soon Percy's face was so cold, an icicle hung from his nose.
36:06Oh, b-b-b-b-b-bother, stuttered Percy.
36:11But it didn't sound like Percy.
36:13It was so cold, he could hardly make a sound.
36:19The next morning, Emily arrived with plenty of coal for Percy.
36:26Oh my, she said.
36:28It looks like Jack Frost really got you there.
36:34Soon Percy was loaded with fresh coal.
36:37And his fire was soon burning nicely.
36:40It wasn't long before his ice mask melted away.
36:45So scary Jack Frost is only frost, puffed Percy happily.
36:51And soon he was as warm as toast.
