00:29I'll see you next time
00:43Thomas is a busy and cheery engine.
00:48As he puffs and huffs across the island, he always toots hello to other engines and to
00:56children along the way.
01:00Even when Thomas is pulling heavy loads.
01:04One morning, Thomas puffed into Brendan docks.
01:08Sir Topham Hatt was waiting.
01:10You are all here to welcome the new engine.
01:13His name is Hank.
01:15I've heard he's very special.
01:17I've heard he's very strong.
01:21Hank puffed into the docks.
01:23Hank was very special.
01:25He had red wheels and a bright red cowcatcher.
01:31And he was very tall.
01:34The engines had never seen an engine like Hank before.
01:38Hank looks as strong as a giant.
01:41I'm sure he isn't stronger than a Sodor engine.
01:45Now, Thomas, I have three jobs for you.
01:48First, you must take new machines from the docks to the factory.
01:53Then you are to pick up stone from the quarry and deliver it to the shunting yard.
01:58And lastly, you are to pick up an old tractor from Farmer McCall's and take it to the repair yard.
02:04Yes, sir.
02:07And you must take Hank with you.
02:09Hank must see the important sights of Sodor.
02:13Be back by tea time for Hank's welcome party at Knapford.
02:18Thomas buffered up to the machine cars.
02:22Hank chuffed alongside.
02:26Hello.
02:27Howdy, Thomas.
02:29Now you look like one of the finest little engines I've ever seen.
02:32Thomas didn't like being called little.
02:35I'm a tank engine.
02:37Thomas thought Hank was being cheeky.
02:40Those freight cars are way too heavy for you.
02:43Let me take them for you.
02:45Hank meant to be helpful, but it made Thomas cross.
02:49No, thank you.
02:51I'm strong enough to pull much heavier loads than this.
02:54I'd be happy to help.
02:56But Thomas was already puffing out of the docks.
03:03At the signal, Thomas didn't take the track to the factory.
03:07He chuffed straight to the quarry.
03:09Thomas pulled ahead.
03:11I may not be grand, and I may not be long, but I'll show Hank that I'm stronger than strong.
03:18He huffed to himself.
03:22Thomas and Hank puffed into the quarry.
03:26Now I'm going to pick up the stone cars.
03:29Hank was surprised.
03:31Hold your huff in there, Thomas.
03:33Let big old Hank take the cars for you.
03:37No, thank you.
03:38Tank engines can pull very heavy loads.
03:42So Thomas heaved and huffed out of the quarry.
03:50Thomas wheezed and wheezed.
03:52Handsome Hank gleamed and glowed by his side.
03:57Children waved from bridges.
03:59Hello, Thomas.
04:02Howdy.
04:03Good to see you.
04:04Hey, Thomas, aren't you going to whistle hello?
04:07Thomas hadn't the puff to whistle hello.
04:11Hank had plenty of puff.
04:14This made Thomas feel even crosser.
04:20Thomas pulled up to the halt.
04:23He was nearly out of puff.
04:25Hello, Farmer McColl.
04:27This is Hank.
04:28He's the new engine on Sodor.
04:30Howdy, Farmer McColl.
04:32That's a mighty fine tractor you have there.
04:35Say, Thomas.
04:36You look all out of puff and pull.
04:39I'll take it for you.
04:41No, thank you.
04:43And the tractor was coupled up to the end of Thomas' freight cars.
04:48Thomas huffed.
04:50And he puffed.
04:51His wheels spun and spun.
04:53Come on, Thomas.
04:55The train's too heavy for you.
04:57Take the pressure off your pistons.
04:59Couple me up.
05:00But Thomas was determined to pull the train on his own.
05:03We must not be late for your party.
05:07Wheel turn by wheel turn.
05:10Thomas puffed away.
05:18Thomas and Hank arrived at Marin Station.
05:22Visitors waved at Thomas.
05:24Thomas wanted to whistle back, but he hadn't any spare steam.
05:28Howdy, everybody.
05:30Thomas is a little overloaded right now.
05:32I'll whistle for him.
05:34Hank had lots of steam.
05:36And Hank blew the longest and loudest whistle.
05:42Then there was trouble.
05:47Thomas had cracked a cylinder.
05:49The train was much too heavy.
05:52Oh, no.
05:53Now the deliveries won't be made.
05:56You won't be back in time for your welcome party.
05:58And I'm not a really useful engine.
06:01Or even a really strong one.
06:04Shucks, Thomas.
06:06I'm so sorry.
06:07That's too bad.
06:09I wanted to show you that I wasn't just a fine little steam engine.
06:13I wanted to show you that I'm really strong.
06:16So, I didn't want to ask for your help.
06:20But, I do now.
06:22Please, Hank.
06:24I'd be happy to help.
06:25You give me the orders.
06:27I'll do the pushing.
06:31Hank and Thomas dropped off Farmer McColl's tractor.
06:38The workmen were very sorry to see Thomas had broken down.
06:43Next, Hank and Thomas chucked into the shunting yards.
06:46The yard manager was waiting.
06:49The stone cars were uncoupled.
06:51I hope you're back on track very soon, Thomas.
06:56Finally, Thomas and Hank delivered the new machines to the factory.
07:01Thank you, Thomas.
07:05Hank pushed Thomas back to Natford Station.
07:09They arrived just in time for the party.
07:12Thank you, Hank.
07:14Now all of Sodor knows what a strong engine you are.
07:17Hank smiled.
07:19And I know something, too.
07:21You're the engine everyone cheers for on Sodor.
07:24That is something to be proud of.
07:27Thomas smiled.
07:29Hank was very special.
07:31He was a very special new friend.
07:34We'll see you next time.
07:43Bye-bye.
07:44Bye-bye.
07:47Bye-bye.
07:52Bye-bye.
07:55Bye-bye.
