[Music]
to a shiny
Station
come true
waiting there
[Music]
he's a doer he's a dreamer he's
absolutely schemer and he's me he's the
beautiful me me me me me me me me me me
me
hi are you addressing me ah YouTube come
on inside I need some design ideas now
what do you think I should put here the
rotating hotdog wheel or the char-broil
stood chicken grill you're not supposed
to be in here this is my grandpa's
workshop well not for long my friend
oh oh hi schemer what are you doing here
you happen to be speaking to the future
owner and operator of a full-service
snack bar of leisure foods coming soon
to a train station near you
Oh what are you talking about coming
we're right here this is from
headquarters
does this mean that the railroad is
letting you open the snack bar here in
Harry's workshop well they were thinking
about it if they like my report though
boom snap our time we'll see about that
[Music]
hello and this is Stacy Jones at shining
time station yes may I please speak to
mr. JB King Esquire good for you Stacy
tell them Harry's workshop stays just as
it is
hello mr. King no no I do not think it's
a dandy idea
no no shining time station does not need
a snack bar well I know other stations
have them but business is fine and
besides other stations don't have hairy
copper he is the heart and soul of this
place yes and and we need him and he
needs his workshop oh that's all I have
to say for now thank you goodbye
Wow Stacy that was your boss isn't your
fire well I don't care because well
because sometimes you just have to stand
up for what you believe in like standing
up for grandpa's workshop every time you
look like you're all dressed up to go
butterfly hunting I am of course a
butterfly to me is about the size of an
evil to you so after I catch one we just
play a few games of cards and then I let
it go there's something to matter well I
wonder if I should call mr. King back
and explain myself better I should say
not let him think about it you don't
want to explain yourself to well you
know because if people know exactly what
you mean then it's easy for them to
disagree with you but if they aren't
sure what you mean then they can never
be quite sure whether they disagree or
not you know it reminds me of when my
friend Doug first arrived on the island
of sodor
[Music]
do you know what asked Percy what
grunted Gordon do you know what silly
said Gordon of course I don't know what
if you don't tell me what-what is Sir
Topham Hatt says that the work in the
yard is too heavy for me he's getting a
bigger engine to help me rubbish said
James any engine could do it if you work
more and chatted less this yard would be
a sweeter a better and a happier place
Percy went off to fetch some coaches
stupid old signal he thought he was
remembering the time misunderstood a
signal and God backwards instead of
forwards no one listens to me now they
think I'm a silly little engine and
order me about I'll show them I'll show
them but he didn't know how
by the end of the afternoon he felt
tired and you brought some coaches to
the station hello Percy
said Sir Topham Hatt you look tired yes
sir I am sir I don't know if I'm
standing on my dome or my wheels you
look the right way up to me
laughs Sir Topham Hatt cheer up the new
engine is bigger than you and can
probably do the work alone would you
like to help build my new harbor Thomas
and Toby will help oh yes sir thank you
sir
the new engine arrived what's your name
asked Sir Topham Hatt Montagu sir but
I'm usually called duck they say I
wattle I don't really sir but I like
duck better than Montague good duck it
shall be here Percy show doc round the
two engines went off together soon they
were very busy James Gordon and Henry
watched up quietly doing his work
he seems a simple sort of engine we'll
have some fun and order him about smoke
billowed everywhere Percy was cross duck
took no notice they'll get tired of it
soon do they tell you to do things Percy
yes they do answered Percy right said
tuck will soon stop that nonsense you
whispered something we'll do it later
Sir Topham Hatt was looking forward to
hot buttered toast for tea at home
suddenly had an extraordinary noise
[Applause]
father he said and hurried to the yard
duck and Percy tomley sat on the
switches outside the shed refusing to
let the engines in Gordon James and
Henry were furious stop that noise
bellowed Sir Topham Hatt they won't let
us in his Gordon duck explain this
behavior beg pardon sir but I'm a great
western engine we do our work without
fuss but beggin your pardon sir Percy
and I would be glad if you would inform
these our engines that we only take
orders from you quiet call Sir Topham
Hatt Percy and duck I am pleased with
your work today but not with your
behavior tonight you have caused the
disturbance Gordon Henry and James
snigger as for you
thundered Sir Topham Hatt you've been
worse you made the disturbance doc is
quite right this is my railway and I
give the orders
the Percy went away duck was left to
manage alone he did so easily there's
just one more thing mr. conductor
honestly how that stories anything to do
with what you said about not explain
yourself to well exactly and now excuse
me I have an appointment in a field of
wildflowers near lucky late
[Music]
afternoon you know that Silva comments
running Bevin if you did 30 years ago
and throttles working smooth got a
picture of when she was new right here
workshop what's this that's the problem
see schemer got permission from the
railroad so uh well to make a proposal
to sort of well to turn your workshop
into something else what kind of
something else
[Music]
[Music]
sometimes my ears play tricks on me
it's Stacey's a snack bar customer
waiting for another train Oh fantastic
listen uh hey I don't know about you but
the making sure you some entertainment
right about now huh
hey how about some music I do believe
that we have a jukebox right around here
right back schemer we cannot close down
Harry's workshop number one he helps me
to keep running the station properly
number two he helps all the passengers
and number three he makes wonderful
things gadgets for me toys for the kids
George Jones don't get serious
today's railroads do not run on songs
gadgets and stories they run on
cheeseburgers and scrambled eggs oh yes
really they also run on equipment and
what about all the repairs that Harry
does around this station this place
wouldn't last a week without Harry's
help
Oh miss Jones you could run this place
by yourself with one hand tied behind
your back am i teaching you how to
manage the joint listen all of these
dropping a nickel is that you
that's it out
but what do you suppose she means by
eight uh excuse me it means I'm the
manager here and I want you out okay I
can take a hint
Miss Jones is it my fault the human
beings need food to survive
well is it excuse me don't this work
good I still say Stacie's right but
sometimes a nice bowl of chili is just
what a buddy leaves it elated huh that's
pure poetry Tex well thank you

and states why schemer doing this I know
he's a bully oh I don't think so Tonya I
know I got angry with him before but
schemers not really a bully a bully is
someone who pushes around people who are
we
well he does so many silly things
skippers problem is is that he doesn't
really know how to get along and work
with other people so he doesn't move to
be a book that's right he doesn't mean
to be a bully here I think he'd like to
be our friend
what goes around always comes around huh
it sounds like a riddle not really take
a look in the picture machine
[Music]
[Music]
right
[Music]
[Music]
respond something nice that you are for
your own in somebody else's
[Music]
bullies are losers at
[Music]
fish chasing my nose all day was quite
tough right
[Music]
cuz he's sure what's more scary
[Music]
excuse me everyone I have work to do I
talked to my lawyers and they said the
only person who's allowed to boss me
around are the people at the main office
suddenly schemer you amaze me i amaze
myself
and Harry just to show you if there's no
hard feelings there you suit yourself
[Music]
it's your machine this is a major
malfunction for me happy guy no way no
way hey Harry - job fine suit yourself
I'll find somebody else Harry you're not
gonna like me for saying this but I
think you should fix the machine
that's not funny stays well well maybe
if you fix the machine then schemer
might might give me back some of his
already supposed to be mine
there it's fixed you can tell because
you laughed
nothing was funny I don't blame him no
one wants to be told they're not useful
no one wants to be replaced Percy went
through the same thing when he met
Harold I'll tell you about it by the way
never beat a golden wanted butterfly in
a game of cards they get angry Percy
worked hard at the new Harbor the work
the needed stone for their building
Toby helped at some times the loads of
stone were too heavy and Percy had to
fix them for himself sometimes you'd see
Thomas well done Percy Sir Topham Hatt
is very pleased with us
an airfield was close by Percy heard the
earthing zooming overhead all day the
noisiest of all was a helicopter stupid
thing said Percy why can't it go and
buzz somewhere else
one day Percy stopped the airfield hello
said Percy who are you I am Harold said
the helicopter who are you I'm Percy
what really great arms you've got there
nice arms said Harold I can hover like a
bird don't you wish you could hover
certainly not I like my rails thank you
I think Rama is the slow said Harold
they're not much use and quite out of
date the world is all buzzed the way
[Music]
Percy found Toby at the quarry
I say Toby that Harold that stuck-up
whirlybird thing says I'm slow and
out-of-date just let him wait I'll show
him he collected his freight cars and
started off still fuming soon they heard
a familiar buzzing he whispered his
driver there's Harold he's not far ahead
let's raise him yes let's send Percy
Percy pounded along the cars screamed
and swayed well I'll be a ding-dong-dang
said the driver there was Harold the
race was on
dalek Percy he'll you're gaining Percy
had never been allowed to run fast
before she was having the time of his
life hurry hurry hurry
he panted to the cars we don't want to
we don't want to they grumbled it was no
use
Percy was rocketing along with flying
wheels and Harold was high and alongside
[Music]
a fireman shoveled for dear life well
done Percy shouted the driver we're
gaining we're going ahead oh good boy
good boy
[Music]
a distant signal warned them that the
harbour Wharf is near PPP brakes -
doctor please driver carefully check the
trains headlong speed
[Music]
they rolled under the main line and
halted on the wharf
oh dear groan Percy I'm sure we've lost
the fireman scrambled to the cab roof
we've won we won he shouted Harold's
still hovering he's looking for a place
to land listen boys the fireman called
here's a song for Percy said Harold
helicopter to our Percy you are slow
your railway is out to date - not what
you know but Percy with the stone cars
to the trip in record time and we beat
the helicopter on our old friends bye
Percy
loved it oh thank you he said he liked
the last line best of all and was a very
happy engine it's nice that person I
became friends but not while schemer
wants that workshop
Harry's like me a traveling man and the
funny thing is the more we travel the
more we like to know that there's one
special place somewhere that's all ours
a place that we can really call home
oh-oh here comes you-know-who time for
me to strum EVOO can you believe some
Joker warranted progeny dollars an hour
plus parts to fix my machine hey why so
go on oh let's schemer take over your
workshop and yes he can be greedy
insulting and very insensitive are you
talking about you so my job is to make
sure that the station runs properly and
that means the whole station so I have
to figure out a way for us all to work
well together you know I do not have to
take this I'm gonna call headquarters
that won't be necessary PC Flanagan
chief roving inspector for the Indian
Valley Railroad I've been observing
you're stationed here I must say I found
it all very interesting him the name is
schemer a vending magnate extraordinaire
cafe proprietor par excellence
mr. schemer I like your jukebox that
claw machine is a classic and you have
some ambitious ideas about opening a
cafe now let me see that letter from
headquarters thank you darlin boy what
that letter is hereby rescinded that
means it's no longer any good and you're
mr. Cooper yes in my opinion mr. Cooper
the Indian Valley Railroad is lucky to
have a man like you on its payroll our
apologies your workshop is sure for as
long as you want it thank you that's all
I wanted to hear
as for you mr. steamer like I said you
have a lot of ambitious ideas and that's
fine but you need a bit more modesty and
a lot more sense
get over here schemer why what well how
do you expect me to fix your machine if
my tools are locked up behind this door
oh you know Harry I think that I learned
a little something from this uh
misunderstanding that we met I really
don't think that we need a snack bar
around here what we need is a guy who
can fix arcade machines yeah and I mean
that thank you mr. Flanagan for what we
would have done without Harry in his
workshop you can thank yourself miss Jo
the things you've been saying make a lot
of sense it's good you held your ground
and stood up for what you believe
reach both speed reach both where Sun go
where the rel-nei run
each more the words reach both starring
- a shining
Station
where dreams
waiting there for me so far to travel so
much to learn
friends by your side hopes to hold on to
do know so far you go
to his shining time station
where dreams can come
[Music]
you
