Thomas Comes to Breakfast

Ringo Starr UK Version:

 * Ringo Starr: Thomas the Tank Engine has worked his Branch Line for many years, and knows it very well.
 * Thomas’ Driver: You know just where to stop, Thomas!
 * Ringo Starr: Laughed his Driver.
 * Thomas’ Driver: You could almost manage it without me.
 * Ringo Starr: Thomas had become conceited. He didn’t realise his Driver was joking. Later he boasted to the others.
 * Thomas: Driver says I don’t need him now.
 * Percy: Don’t be so daft!
 * Ringo Starr: Snorted Percy.
 * Toby: I’d never go without my Driver.
 * Ringo Starr: Said Toby earnestly.
 * Toby: I’d be frightened.
 * Thomas: Pooh!
 * Ringo Starr: Boasted Thomas.
 * Thomas: I’m not scared.
 * Toby: You’d never dare!
 * Thomas: I would then. You’ll see!
 * Ringo Starr: The next morning the Firelighter came. Thomas drowsed comfortably as the warmth spread though his boiler. Percy and Toby were still asleep. Thomas suddenly remembered.
 * Thomas: Silly stick-in-the-muds.
 * Ringo Starr: He chuckled.
 * Thomas: I’ll show them! Driver said I could managed without him. I’ll just go out, then I’ll stop and “wheeeeesh”. That’ll make them jump!
 * Ringo Starr: Thomas thought he was being clever; really he was only moving because a careless cleaner had meddled with his controls. He soon found his mistake. He tried to “wheeeeesh”, but he couldn’t. He tried to stop, but he couldn’t. He just kept rolling along. He didn’t dare look at what was coming next. There was the Stationmaster’s house! The Stationmaster was about to have breakfast.
 * Thomas: Horrors!
 * Ringo Starr: Cried Thomas, and shut his eyes. The house rocked – broken glass tinkled – plaster was everywhere. Thomas had collected a bush on his travels. He peered into the room through its leaves. He couldn’t speak. The Stationmaster was furious. His wife picked up her plate.
 * Stationmaster’s Wife: You miserable engine.
 * Ringo Starr: She scolded.
 * Stationmaster’s Wife: Just look what you’ve done to our breakfast! Now I shall have to cook some more.
 * Ringo Starr: She banged the door. More plaster fell. This time, it fell on Thomas. Thomas felt depressed. Workmen propped up the house with strong poles and laid rails through the garden. Meanwhile, Donald and Douglas arrived.
 * Donald and Douglas: Dinna fash yerself, Thomas. We’ll soon hae ye back on the rails.
 * Ringo Starr: They laughed. Donald and Douglas, puffing hard, managed to haul Thomas back to safety. Bits of fencing, the bush, and a broken window-frame festooned his front, which was badly twisted. The Twins laughed and left him. Thomas was in disgrace, there was worse to come.
 * The Fat Controller: You are a very naughty engine.
 * Thomas: I know, Sir. I’m sorry, Sir.
 * Ringo Starr: Thomas’ voice was muffled behind his bush.
 * The Fat Controller: You must go to the Works, and have your front mended. It will be a long job.
 * Thomas: Yes, Sir.
 * The Fat Controller: Meanwhile, a Diesel Rail-car will do your work.
 * Thomas: A D-D-Diesel, Sir?
 * Ringo Starr: Thomas spluttered.
 * The Fat Controller: Yes, Thomas. Diesels always stay in their sheds till they are wanted. Diesels never gallivant off to breakfast in Stationmasters’ house.
