Rusty quotes from Thomas & Friends

[to his driver] I think it's the boulder wanting us to go away.

It was all my fault for hurrying you, but I can take you back to put them right, and this time I won't rush.

I hope he doesn't hurt his passengers.

What's that about me? I'm a plain engine, and I believe in plain speakin'. Speak up!

Rusty warned Duncan about the bad bit of line.

Hmph! I know my way about. I don't need smelly diesels to tell me what to do.

Can you help me find another engine?

Where?

Where you found Oliver.

You mean on The Other Railway?

Yes. I'm looking for a bluebell engine.

I'd like to help. But these days, it's only diesels that go there.

So that's where I'll go! [leaves]

Take care.

Who are you?!

I'm a shed and sidings inspection diesel. Have you any engines in the shed?

No. None!

Then what about the sidings?

One. We have one.

Then I'll just go and inspect.

Everyone's been so kind, but my railway is so short and I do miss a good long run.

I think you should tell driver, too. I'm sure he'll understand.

[to Peter Sam] Fancy not securing your trucks on a hill. They'll come back to spook you and your special funnel. WHOO!

And who's to say you're not afraid of ghosts?!

Ghosts? Things that go bump in the night? Rubbish!

Well, I'll tell you a story that'll make your funnel quiver.

A long time ago, a little engine was returning home. It was a misty moonlit night. As the engine crossed the Old Iron Bridge, he suddenly lost control, and plunged over the side, into the swamps below.

He was never found again, but many a workman will tell you that when the moon is full, they have seen the little engine trying to get home. But he never reaches the other side.

So, what do you think of that, Duncan?

Rubbish!

No one knew that the heat from Skarloey's engine had helped to make an igloo.

It's a snowball. It's a snow house. It's an engine!

They cleared away the ice, only to find Skarloey's driver and fireman drinking cocoa, as if nothing had happened!

I'm a plain-speaking engine, so collect your trucks, and be quick about it!

Bossy boots!

Pushy puffer!

He just wants to get back to the bustle of the junction.

What a waste of time!

She's right. We'll never get it done in 2 weeks.

We can't give up.

Look! It's Duncan the musical engine!

Let's whistle along!

Toot Toot!

You really did well to deliver your goods without a whistle.

Did you think so?

Absolutely, even though an engine's not an engine without a whistle. [whistles]

Or an organ. ["toots" the organ]

And all the engines tooted back, except Duncan, who just grinned.

[looks at the derailed coach] Driver said this shed is useless now.

It's not a shed. It's an old railway coach.

How can I make the children's day really special?

You know the mountains better than any engine.

Duncan think's he's fast. But he's just a bossy boiler.

Better safe than fast.

Don't use the old wooden bridge. It's dangerous.

How would you know? You're only a diesel.
