male narrator:
The missing breakdown train.
[whistles toot]
male narrator:
The breakdown train
consists of a small coach,
some flatbed cars,
and two cranes,
whose names are
Judy and Jerome.
Judy and Jerome love
rescuing engines
that have broken down
or come off the rails.
[whistle toots]
- Hello.
- Oh.
- Emergency!
- Judy?
- Jerome!
- Where's the accident?
- There's no emergency.
I was just...
saying hello.
- Oh.
- Oh.
narrator: Unfortunately,
Judy and Jerome
haven't dealt
with any emergencies
for some time.
- My name is Ryan.
- Well. Hello, Ryan.
My name's Judy.
- And my name's Jerome.
both: And we're
the breakdown train.
- Oh. [chuckles]
Like Rocky.
- Well...yes, I suppose.
- Since they built
that Search & Rescue Center,
no one uses us anymore.
Rocky gets all the good jobs.
- And we're left looking
at the Yard, day in, day out.
- Oh, dear.
Well, I'm on my way
to Arlesburgh Harbour.
I could take you there,
for a change?
both: Oh, yes please!
[whistle toots]
- Oh, this is nice,
isn't it, Jerome?
- It certainly is--
an adventure!
[duck quacks]
[ducks quacking]
- Right then, you two,
I'm off to work.
Are you going to be okay?
Oh, yes. We love it here.
Don't we, Judy?
- Oh, we do!
[laughs]
Thanks, Ryan.
See you later.
- [laughs]
Cheerio!
[whistle toots]
- Oh, sea air.
You can't beat it.
- And what a view.
[gasps] Look, Judy,
a boat--on the railway line.
- I've never seen
anything like it.
- [sighs]
Look at the lighthouse.
- And the ships.
- And the seagulls.
[gulls cawing]
Oh. There he goes again,
that boat-train.
- Oh, yes.
Funny-looking thing.
[gull caws]
I don't think
I like seagulls.
[gasps]
- That lighthouse
doesn't do much.
- Hmm, it just goes round...
and round.
- [snoring]
[gull caws]
Ahh! Ooh, Shoo!
Shoo shoo shoo shoo!
- Judy?
- Ohh, Jerome.
- [sighs]
[gears screeching]
You know, I don't think
the sea air is
good for my gears.
[gears screeching]
- Oh. You're right.
And we are
the breakdown train,
so we have to be ready
in an emergency.
- That last engine was nice,
so why don't we ask another one
if they'll move us along?
We could try
somewhere else.
[whistle toots]
- Ah.

both:
Thanks, Oliver.
[sheep bleating]
- Ohh, this is
a beautiful spot.
[sheep bleating]
- So nice and peaceful,
and ever so...so...
so...
both: Boring!
- [sighs]
It really is.
All these green fields
look the same.
- And I've counted
all those sheep five times,
and there are still
of them.
It never changes.
[sheep bleats]
[sheep bleating]
[whistle toots]
- Are you thinking
what I'm thinking?
- Mm-hmm.
Hey, Duck!
Over here!
narrator: Meanwhile,
Daisy the diesel railcar
was on her way
back to her shed,
but then
there was trouble.
[bull moos]
- Oh!
[brakes screeching]
- Oh, no!
Look out!
- Ah! [gasps] Oh! Oh.
Help! Oh!
Help!
Ah!
[dramatic music]
- Judy! Jerome!
Where are you?
- Thomas.
What's happened?
- It's Daisy.
She's come off the tracks
on her way back to the shed,
but I can't find
the breakdown train.
Now I'll have to go
all the way
to the Search & Rescue Center
for Rocky.
- No, Thomas, don't.
I know where
the breakdown train is.
Leave it with me.
[whistle toots]
narrator:
But the breakdown train
wasn't at the harbor
anymore.
- Oh, no.
Where have they gone?
- Are you looking
for Judy and Jerome?
- Yes!
Yes, I am!
- Oliver took off
with them
down Duck's branch line.
Funny looking--
[whistle toots]
Oh.
narrator:
But the breakdown train
wasn't on Duck's
branch line either.
[whistle toots]
- Oliver!
[brakes screeching]
[whistle toots]
- Oh. Hello there.
- Where is the breakdown train--
Judy and Jerome? Do you know?
- I left them on a siding
down the line,
but Duck moved them
somewhere else.
- Where? I need to find them
as quickly as possible,
there's an emergency!
- What do you think,
Jerome?
It's a bit dusty
round here, isn't it?
- Yes.
And very noisy!
- What's that, Jerome?
- I said very n--
[whistle toots]
Oh, hello, Ryan.
- What?
Oh!
- Emergency!
- Emergency? Really?
Oh, great!
- Oh.
[whistle toots]
Finally, a chance to do
what we do best.
- Okay.
- Ooh, mind my springs.
- Don't worry, Daisy.
We've got you. [grunts]
- Easy now, Judy.
Steady as she goes.
narrator: Judy and Jerome
were so happy.
At last they had a chance
to be really useful again.
[peaceful music]
- Judy and Jerome,
you did a good job today,
but it's very important
that we all know where you are.
Otherwise,
when there's an emergency,
you'll only add
to the confusion and delay.
- Sorry, sir.
- We didn't mean to cause
any trouble, but--
- We had been stuck in the yard
for a very long time and--
- We never seemed to attend
any emergencies anymore.
- Yeah, I appreciate that,
and today you have reminded me
that Rocky is not
the only breakdown crane
on the island.
So from now on I propose
that you should stay here
in the Arlesburgh Goods Yard,
then you will be
on hand and ready
when there's an emergency
on this side of the island.
[both cheering and laughing]
[whistle toots]
- Thank you, sir.
- [laughs]
narrator: Judy and Jerome
were very happy,
and they were more than ready
to help their friends
the next time
they were needed.
[laughter]
- Oh. Oh!
Shoo!
