and Friends theme song)
- [Narrator] Rusty is
a little diesel engine
who works at the quarry
on the Island of Sodor.
Rusty's best friends are
Rheneas and Skarloey.
Rusty helps keep
their line clear.
(whimsical music)
Sometimes, Rusty works so
hard clearing their line
that the little diesel forgets
there's also work to
be done at the quarry.
One day, Rusty returned
late to the quarry.
Sir Topham Hatt was cross.
"Sorry, sir,"
Rusty's driver said.
"We were helping
Rheneas and Skarloey."
"I know you like helping
Rheneas and Skarloey,
"but their line is
in bad condition.
"It takes too much of your
time," said Sir Topham Hatt.
"I am going to shut it down."
Rusty was upset.
"But what will Rheneas and
Skarloey do?" Rusty asked.
"They will come and work
with you here at the quarry."
He had made up his mind.
There was nothing
Rusty could do.
Their line was closed down.
Rheneas and Skarloey came
to work at the quarry.
They worked as
hard as they could,
but they missed the
forests and hills.
Most of all, they
missed their passengers.
(sad music)
Rusty could see
they were not happy.
[Engine Toots]
Sir Topham Hatt came to the
quarry with important news.
"We are going to be blasting
"for the next two
weeks," he said.
"It won't be safe for you here.
"I'll have to find
you other work."
"Please, sir," Rusty said.
"May we use the
two weeks to repair
"Rheneas and Skarloey's line?
"Then they can go back
to their old jobs."
"There are plenty of
line workers available,"
Rusty's driver added.
Sir Topham Hatt agreed.
"But you have only two
weeks to complete the job,"
he said, sternly.
(whimsical music)
[Engines Toot]
Rheneas and Skarloey's line
was covered in
rocks and branches.
The tracks were broken
in several places.
[Elizabeth's Horn Beeps]
Elizabeth, the quarry truck,
thought cleaning up the
line was ridiculous.
"What a waste of
time," she sniffed.
Skarloey was upset.
"She's right," he said.
"We'll never get it
done in two weeks."
"We can't give up!" said Rusty.
The engines worked
harder than ever,
but time was running out.
[Elizabeth's Horn Beeps]
[Elizabeth's Horn Beeps]
The next day, Rusty
had a very clever idea.
"If only we had a truck
to help us," Rusty sighed.
Elizabeth stopped.
(whimsical music)
"But I couldn't
possibly help you.
"I'm a quarry truck."
"Well, we do need a special
kind of truck," Rusty teased.
"I am a special kind of
truck," protested Elizabeth.
"It requires
hauling," said Rusty.
"I can haul," said Elizabeth.
"And pulling heavy
branches," added Rusty.
"Well, of course I can pull."
"So, you'll do it!" said Rusty.
"Well, of course,"
said Elizabeth proudly.
[Elizabeth's Horn Beeps]
Elizabeth was as
good as her word.
She hauled rubbish and pulled
branches from the line.
(whimsical music)
She helped remove a
fallen sycamore tree
from the cattle creek.
(whimsical music)
"Thank you,
Elizabeth," said Rusty.
"We couldn't have
done it without you."
"I know," said
Elizabeth, proudly.
Sir Topham Hatt
inspected the line.
He was very impressed.
"Well done, Rusty," he said,
"And well done, Elizabeth.
"We will open this
line immediately."
Rusty was proud.
Rheneas and Skarloey
were very happy.
"Maybe now Rusty will have time
"to work at the quarry,"
said Sir Topham Hatt.
And Rusty just smiled.
