Thomas The Tank Engine And Friends (1984) s01e13 Episode Script
Thomas, Terence and the Snow (7 min)
Autumn had come to Sodor.
The fields were changing from yellow to brown and a tractor was hard at work.
Later, Thomas saw the tractor close by.
"Hello.
l'm Terence, l am ploughing.
" "l'm Thomas.
What ugly wheels you have.
" "They're caterpillars.
l can go anywhere.
l don't need rails.
" "l don't want to go anywhere," said Thomas, "l like my rails.
" Winter came with clouds full of snow.
"A heavy fall is coming," said the driver.
"l hope it doesn't stop us.
" "Ha! Soft stuff, nothing to it.
" They finished their journey but by now the country was covered.
"You'll need your snowplough now.
" "Ha! Snow is soft, it won't stop me!" A snowplough was uncomfortable and made Thomas cross.
He shook it and banged it and it was so damaged that the driver had to take it off.
"You're a very naughty engine.
" Next morning, Thomas' driver worked hard to mend the snowplough but they couldn't make it fit.
Thomas was pleased.
"l shan't have to wear it!" he puffed.
"l hope it's all right," Annie and Clarabel whispered.
The driver was worried.
"lt's not bad here," he said, "but it's sure to be deep in the valley.
" "Silly soft stuff," puffed Thomas.
"l didn't need that stupid thing yesterday and l shan't today.
" He rushed into a tunnel thinking how clever he was.
"Cinders and ashes! l'm stuck.
" "Back, Thomas," said his driver.
Thomas tried but he couldn't move.
People tried to dig the snow away but as they dug, more snow slipped down until Thomas was buried! "Oh! l shall have to stop here till l'm frozen.
" And Thomas began to cry.
A bus came to rescue the passengers and then who should come to Thomas' rescue but Terence! He pulled the coaches away then came back for Thomas.
Thomas' wheels spun when he tried to move.
(Whistles) Terrence tugged and slipped and at last dragged Thomas clear.
(Whistles) (Toots) "Thank you, Terence.
Your caterpillars are splendid.
" "l hope you'll be sensible now, Thomas," said his driver.
"l'll try," said Thomas.
