- [Alec] It was a moonlit night.
Henry was taking a goods train
to the station by the lake.
(ominous music)
(owl hooting)
"Whenever that owl
hoots, a mist rolls in,"
murmured Edward.
"There's a legend that
when the mist's about,
"there's a ghost about too.
"Take care on the
old line, Henry."
(owl hooting)
"Stupid bird," said Henry.
"Owls, mists, ghosts.
"Edward's going
soft in the boiler.
"There's no mist."
(dramatic orchestral music)
But Henry was wrong.
"What's that?" cried Henry.
"It's an amber lamp,"
murmured his driver.
"That means proceed
with caution."
"Who's there?"
No one replied.
Henry crept slowly forward.
He stopped by a tree.
It had a sign nailed to it:
"BEWARE OF THE VIADCUT."
The driver was surprised.
"No one warned us
about that before,
"and look, the signal's red
and the gates are closed!
"And there's a Fogman's coat,
but where is its owner?"
Then they saw a light move
within the station building.
"Ghosts!"
exclaimed Henry.
"Edward was right!"
"Something very
strange is happening,"
said his driver.
"I think it's best we go back."
"So do I," agreed Henry.
By morning, the
mist had cleared.
A workman was talking
about the unsafe viaduct.
"Lucky you didn't
cross it last night."
"Yes, but we don't
know who warned us,"
replied Henry's driver.
Later that day,
he spoke to Henry.
"The viaduct has been repaired.
We can take our train back
along the old line tonight."
Henry really didn't want to.
But when nightfall came,
he was sizzling nicely.
Suddenly, an owl hooted and
then Gordon thundered by.
"Oh, look... Henry's spooked!"
Said a freight car.
(trains chirping)
"Be quiet!"
Snapped Henry.
"I'm not scared!"
But he was.
A little later,
the fog came down.
As they approached
the same area,
they saw the amber light again.
"Here we go," said
Henry's driver.
(dramatic orchestral music)
Then, unknown to Henry,
the gates mysteriously
closed by themselves
and the signal went red.
The freight cars had
seen everything and
they were spooked.
"Faster, faster!
there's a ghost about!"
"Stop! stop!"
Yelled Henry.
(gate crashing)
A mysterious figure
watched Henry go by.
Ahead was a landslide
blocking the line.
Henry braked hard,
but the freight cars
hit some of the rubble
and plunged into the ravine.
(rocks crashing)
Just then, Henry's driver
saw a strange sight
coming towards them.
"What's that?"
He said.
The fireman laughed,
"that's our ghost!
"It's Old Bailey, the Fogman."
Old Bailey was very cross.
"I tried to warn you
about the viaduct,
why didn't you pay attention?"
"We're sorry,"
replied the driver.
"Is there anything we
can do to thank you?"
"I'd like to operate
that old station."
"If you'll let me, i promise
i won't spook Henry again."
And in a little while, Old
Bailey's wish was granted.
"You and your station
will be really useful,"
said Sir Topham Hatt.
"Let's hear a hearty thank you
to the friendliest
'ghost' on the island!"
Everyone cheered,
especially Henry,
who was the happiest of all.
