Summary

High up in the mountains there was a mysterious boulder, they were making a new quarry close to it. Rusty told Thomas and Percy about the boulder, the Edward came up with a new piece of equipment, his name was Thumper and he would help drill rock faster, the workmen were pleased, but they forgot to check boulder.

When it rained the workmen went away, but Rusty gazed up at boulder looking worried. The next day the sun was shining and Thumper was working hard, but then boulder started to move, he rolled down Rusty's line. Rusty went by a junction and the boulder rolled up hill, then it chased Skarloey and Rheneas.

Soon it came to the yard and smashed in to the shed right next to Percy. Sir Top Ham Hatt came and announced the mine closed. They put boulder back on a hill near the yard, Rusty still thinks it gazes up to the mountain where it once stood proud and silent.
