Summary

Percy told Thomas he was being put upon, then he worked hard for the rest of the day. That night at the sheds the engines teased Percy, but Sir Top Ham Hatt was there and he told Percy to get a good nights rest.

The next day Percy was at a mine, some cars were stuck inside so Percy pushed them out, but he bumped them to hard and the ran in the mines below, then a avalanche started, Percy saw a canvas barrier up the track that saved them.

The next day the workmen dug Percy and his crew out and Sir Top Ham Hatt gave him a new coat of paint for being brave. Then he saw Thomas and told him he didn't mind the paint being put upon him.

Review

I thought Annie and Clarabels singing was funny, but I still don't like how the engines are mean to each other. It was strange that Percy did all the hard work and the other engines laughed at him. I thought the scenes with the mine and the coal were really well done. The trucks face looked like he had a strange white thing, maybe a tooth sticking out of him mouth.

Over all I give this episode a 1/10
