male narrator:
Toby's new friend.
One morning Sir Topham Hatt's
new diesel boxcab,
Philip,
was shunting cars
in the yard...
[horn blows]
When he saw another engine
a little like him.
- Hello?
Another boxcab?
I thought I was
the only boxcab on Sodor.
♪♪
- It was Toby.
[horn toots]
- Hello?
Hello, little boxcab!
Hello?
Oh...
[horn toots]
[gasps]
Thomas,
you won't believe
what I just saw!
Guess! Guess!
Another engine
shaped just like me.
- Oh.
[laughs]
That must have been Toby!
- Toby?
[gasps] Toby!
That is a perfect name
for a small engine.
Toby and I are
gonna be best friends, Thomas.
Oh, I just know it!
We are so alike!

- The next day,
Philip saw Toby again.
- Oh! Oh! There he is.

[horn toots]
Hello, Toby.
- Oh, hello.
- My name's Philip.
Do you like racing?
I love racing.
Did you hear about
the race I had with Gordon?
Yes, well, I won.
Oh, yes, I'm very fast.
My name's Philip.
Ph-lip. Like Philip.
We could have a race
if you like.
- A race?
- Oh, you're pulling a coach.
I didn't even notice.
Hello, coach.
- I do have a name.
I'm Henrietta.
And it's very nice
to meet you, Philip,
but I really don't think
Toby wants to have a race.
- He doesn't?
You don't?
Oh, but I can let you win.
I don't always have to win.
We can take turns.
We can be friends.
- Everybody's onboard, Toby.
We can go now.
[whistle blows]
[bell dings]
- Sorry, Philip.
I have to go
up to the quarry now.
Maybe another time.
- Bye, Philip.
Nice to meet you.
- Aw.

- I really didn't know
what to make of that Philip.
He's a very funny little engine.
- He looked
a bit like you, Toby.
Small and boxy.
- He doesn't
look like me at all!
He's green and yellow
for a start.
And he never stops talking.
- [laughs]
Oh, Toby.
- Knapford is noisy
and busy enough
without an engine like that.
In any case,
I prefer the peace and quiet
of the countryside.
- Toby!
[horn toots]
Toby!
Wait for me!
- Ugh!
It can't be!
- It can.
- Hey, Toby, look!
These cars have to go
to the quarry, too.
So we can have a race now.
Come on!
[horn toots]
Toby?
What's wrong?
Why aren't you racing?
- Toby's a bit too old
for racing.
- Too old?!
I'm not too old!
I just don't think
my passengers
would like it very much
if I had a race.
- A race?
- Go on, Toby.
Have a race
[train engine chugging]

Race! Race! Race!
- Oh, dear.

- Oh, they're all right, Toby.
They've stopped just in time.
- Oh, dear.
[bell dings]
- Toby and Henrietta dropped
off the quarry workers
at the quarry and turned around
to come back.
- [sighs]
I'm not really cut out
for this racing game,
Henrietta,
but that doesn't mean
I'm too old.
- No.
No, of course you're not.

- Hello, Toby.
That was a good race
back there, wasn't it?
And, see?
Didn't I say I'd let you win?
- I have to go back now,
Philip.
- No! Oh, wait for me.
I'll just dump these cars
and turn around.
We can go back together.
[train engine chugging]

Oh.
- Later,
Thomas found Philip
back in the yard,
looking sad.

- Are you all right,
Philip?
- I don't think
Toby likes me, Thomas.
And he's the only other
diesel boxcab I know.
- Toby's not a diesel.
[laughs]
He's a steam tram.
He runs on coal and water
like me.
- A steam tram?
But I thought
steamies liked racing.
- Well, I love racing, Philip...
[horn toots]
But not all engines
like the same things.

- The next day,
Philip worked in the yard...

And took flatbeds
to the Docks...

But he didn't see Toby
until late in the afternoon
when he found
the little steam tram
filling up with water.
- Hello, Philip.
- Hello, Toby.
I thought we were
going to be friends.
- Oh, Philip,
we can be friends.
- But you don't like racing.
[horn toots]
- No, I prefer
peace and quiet.
- Peace and quiet?
What do you mean?
- I mean trundling slowly
through the countryside
enjoying the fresh air
and the calm.
- Oh, I might like that too.
I just never tried it.
Maybe we can be friends.
- [chuckles]
Of course we can, Philip.
[bell dings]
We don't have to like
the same things to be friends.
- That's right.
That's what Thomas said too!
[laughs]
My turn.
[horn toots]
- Um, that's water,
Philip.
I think you need diesel.
- Oh, yeah,
I need diesel.
Not water and coal like you.
[laughs]
Thanks, Toby!
[gentle upbeat music]
- Philip and Toby
are friends now
and they always say hello
when they see each other.
[horn toots]
[bell dings]
Even though
Toby doesn't like racing,
there are some things
that both engines do like
such as the peace and quiet
of the countryside.

Toby! Hello!

Hello!

the peace and quiet, Toby.
Just like you!
Well, see you later, Toby!
Bye! Bye!
Bye!
[horn toots]
- Although sometimes
Philip enjoyed
the peace and quiet
a little too loudly.
