Percy quotes from Thomas & Friends

It made me feel like a really useless engine.

Oh, jeepers! That foghorn is so loud it rattles my dome! And it doesn't even make my axles tingle.

[after seeing another building at the mine sink] Double bouncing buffers!

[after all his literally dirty work] From now on, I am only doing work where I won't get dirty!

I know! I'll say a magic word - Hey, Presto! Hocus Pocus! Abracadabra! Please?

[to the artist] Everywhere on Sodor is special, and so are the people and the children and the engines! We are all special!

Maybe Toby and Edward need some help. Helping friends is much more important than delivering coal!

[to Dowager Hatt] Happy birthday, Ma'am. Here is your very special birthday present!

Big balloons make my boiler bubble, Thomas.

Christmas is a time for being kind and giving presents!

This'll be the best Christmas ever!

[helps Percy out of the earth bank] Well done, Percy. You started so quickly that you stopped a nasty accident.

I'm sorry I was cheeky. You were clever to stop.

Look here, Percy. Whatever is that dirty object?

That's James. Didn't you know?

It's James' shape. But James is a splendid red engine, and you never see his paint dirty.

James pretended he hadn't heard.

[in his sleep] It's really tiring to be such a large and splendid engine. One does have to keep up appearances so.

Peep-Peep-Peep-Peep! Hello, Fat face!

What cheek! That Henry is too big for his wheels. Fancy speaking to me like that. Me, who has never had an accident!

Aren't jammed whistles and burst safety valves accidents?

No, indeed! High spirits- Might happen to any engine. But to come off the rails like Henry did, well I ask you, is that right? Is it decent?

Ha! Just look at us. Your driver will have to work fast to get you as smart as us.

Never mind that. I have something important to say. Do you realize it's been a whole year since Mrs. Kyndley saved us from a nasty accident?

You remember, when she was ill and bed, and...?

Yes, of course. You told us how she waved her red dressing gown out of her window to warn you about a landslide ahead.

And you and Toby gave her presents. And the Fat Controller sent her to Bournemouth to get better.

Exactly! So, now I think we should all give her a special Christmas party.
