Summary
The engines were at Tidmouth sheds, it was early in the morning and Percy wanted all the engines to see his new coat of paint. Thomas had an idea, he told the engines the story about Duke and Falcon. The three engines were now on the new narrow gauge railway, the manager came to talk to Falcon. He said that he would get a new coat of paint, and then try to learn the mountain part of the line. Duke came the next day to help, Falcon thought he was a fuss pot. When they got to the tunnel everything seemed fine, but Falcon just about fell off the rails. Duke held on with all his might, but then he ran out of water. All the passengers ran to a nearby cottage and filled pails of water in to Duke's boiler. After his thirst was quenched, he pulled Falcon to safety. After, the manager apologised for the accident. Falcon wondered why Duke was nice to him after he was rude. Well, Duke said, you wouldn't want to spoil your new coat of paint.Review
This episode was OK. I don't know if the version I was on You Tube didn't have the ending part or not, but they never showed the engines at the sheds after Thomas told the story. For some reason, Duke doesn't have any buffers. This episode is featured on the DVD Sing Along & Story's. There are load's of goofs for this episode on the TTTE Wikia.
Over all I give this episode a 3/10
