for One More

Story Trevor the traction engine enjoyed

living in the Vick georan Edward came to

see him every day but sometimes Trevor

didn't have enough work to do I do like

to keep busy all the time he sighed one

day and I do like company especially

children children's company cheer up

smiled Edward sir toam has has worked

for you at his new Harbor I'm to take

you to meet Thomas

today ah exclaimed Trevor happily a

harbor the

seaside children that will be

[Music]

lovely Thomas was on his way to the

harbor with a trainload of metal piling

they were needed to make the harbor wall

firm and

safe hello Thomas said Edward this is

Trevor a friend of mine he's a traction

engine Thomas eyes the uker doubtful a

what engine he asked a traction engine

explained Trevor I run on roads instead

of rails can you take me to the harbor

please Sir Topham has has a job for me

yes of course replied Thomas but he was

still

puzzled workmen coupled Trevor's car to

Thomas's train and soon they were ready

to start their

[Music]

Journey I'm glad the toam Hat needs me

PA Trevor I don't have enough to do

sometimes you know although I can work

anywhere in Orchards on farms in

scrapyards even at Harbors but you don't

run on Rails talk Thomas I'm a traction

engine I don't need rails to be useful

replied Trevor you wait and

see when they reached the haror they

found everything in

confusion cars had been derailed locking

the lion and stone SL play

everywhere we must get these pilings

pass said Thomas's dri they are

essential Trevor we need you to drag

them around this mess just the sort of

job I like replied Trevor now you'll see

Thomas I'll soon show you what traction

engines can do Trevor was as good as his

word dragged the pilings clear with

chains and towed them into

position who needs rails he must is here

pursue

[Music]

himself later Thomas brought Annie and

clarel to visit him Thomas was most

impressed now I understand how useful a

traction engine can be the coaches were

full of children Trevor gave them rides

along the harbor he liked this best of

[Music]

all he's very kind said Annie he reminds

me of Thomas added clarel everyone was

sorry when it was time for Trevor to go

Thomas pulled him to the

junction a small tear came into Trevor's

eye Thomas pretended not to see he

whistle gaying to make Trevor happy I'll

come and see you if I can he promised

the Vicor will look after you and

there's plenty of work for you now at

the orchard but we may need you again at

the harbor someday that would be

wonderful said

Trevor that evening Trevor stood

remembering his new friend Tom

the harbor and most of all the children

then he went happily to sleep in the

shed at the bottom of the

[Music]

orchan now I think it is getting time

for me to leave not yet please not yet

now let me tell you both something no

matter what happens we will always be

friends planis

planis it's a promise goodbye now

goodbye wait you forgot your

heart it's too late now he's gone

forever Good day Miss Jones

oh good day Mr King well yes now onto

business I imagine you know why I'm here

it is my duty as superintendent of the

Indian Valley railroads who officially

close this station no no you can't close

this station shining time is the best

station the Indian Valley Railroad has

are you two major stockholders in this

railroad no no good now let me explain

something to you kids we just built a

huge station at snaro we don't need

these little stations anymore besides I

like things big bigger is better tell me

you two both want to grow up and be big

don't you

sure you do now you're thinking

correctly now you're thinking big I

don't want to be big if me losing what's

night well you've got a point

there let's go

go ah I have a plan I was just talking

to my mommy and she said we might we

might be able to move the entire train

station to her backyard oh thank you K

but how would the trains get over

therea you remember Mr King

superintendent of the

railroad I remember you you're the one

who's responsible for all the misery

around here you're the one responsible

for taking away all the

train what is the meaning of this no

trains are supposed to stop here

anymore

that's Jerry the juggler my favorite

juggling clown in the entire world that

Jerry Jerry the juggler my

idol what's going on here Stacey huh the

railroad rerooted the circus train past

here to some awful place called sville

we had to back up the whole way to pull

in here you know Jerry the juggler oh

yes Jerry this is Mr King's

superintendent of the

railroad are you the one responsible for

closing down this station

oh that's not funny no no that's not

funny you may not know this but the

circus train goes 200 mil out of its way

every year just to stop at this station

did you know that this station is

special to

us there's just no other place like it

we wouldn't think of going on tour

without stopping here first it's our

lucky

charm

so I sure hope it's not being shut

down well I I don't know what to say

well I'd like to say something Mr King

Jerry circus stops in all the little

towns and all the big cities all over

the state by that way everyone gets a

chance to see his

cirle and trains why they're sort of

like the surface Mr K because well we

feel that everyone should have a chance

to take a train ride even if they live

in the tinest smallest little town in

the state if you close our station there

no no one who lives here will ever be

able to see the surface in their own

town again and no one will ever be able

to take a train that let them off the

child

station well I'm going to have to think

about that Miss Jones great thinking

about it is a step in the right

direction everybody everybody look at me

everybody look look look look I'm going

to go tell the

others

[Music]

so this is where Mr Conductor

[Music]

lives I

see I

see

[Music]

this is a special

place hey

kids what do you say we leave this

patient

open on one condition Miss Jones yes sir

you get me Jerry the juggler's autograph

of

course well I'm going to go watch the

circus you know Jerry the juggler has a

very serious side I like that in the

juggling

clown you know

something you know
