Thomas & Friends quotes

How many spaceships did you find?

It wasn't a spaceship. It was Jeremy the plane coming in to land. Gordon, I need your help. You are faster and stronger than any engine. If we share the trucks, the mail can still be delivered by breakfast.

I thought you were collecting trucks of presents.

You're supposed to be at the airport!

Edward has my lucky trucks. I must find him.

Don't worry. I'll have the line cleared in no time!

[after the trucks are broken] I'm not going anywhere without my lucky trucks.

But they're broken, and if you don't collect the presents soon the children won't haven anything to open in the morning.

I'll have to get to the airport somehow, even without my lucky trucks!

I'm sure the lightbulb wouldn't break if I went just a little faster.

This is going to be the biggest firework party ever!

You look like a ghost!

[covered in flour] WHOO! Look at me! I'm a ghost!

Where are your trucks?

Here they are, sir. Loaded up and ready to go!

The little engines laughed, and The Thin Controller laughed too.

Thomas, that was a good joke! You are a really funny engine!

I'm going to be in a magic show. I've come to collect something for the grand finale.

How jolly!

[looks at the phone booth] That must be it.

You've brought all the wrong things. I needed my red carpet, my blue box, and big yellow sheet. Without them, I can't do my grand finale.

Be careful, Thomas! The wind is filling the boat's sails!

Thomas, I see you have decided that full steam is better than full sail!

Yes, sir!

Today, I am to look after a new engine.

That's a special job, me hearty. [sees the engine arrive] Here he is.

I'm Billy. Let's go.

Wait, Billy. We can't go yet. We have to wait for The Fat Controller.

Why?

Because he tells us what we are to do.

Billy, you have a very busy day. First, you must take empty chicken vans to the farm and bring chickens back to the docks. Then, you are to deliver diesel fuel to the quarry, and lastly, you have to take coal to the depot.

Yes, sir. Right away, sir.

Thomas, you must show Billy how to be a Really Useful Engine.

Billy, you must pull the chickens slowly and smoothly.

I know that!

Don't pump your pistons before you are ready to leave. It wastes coal and water, and first you must take on enough coal and water for a busy day.

Thomas! Stop telling me what to do! You are a very bossy engine!

He thinks you're a bossy boiler, me hearty.

Goodbye, Billy. The Fat Controller will be very pleased you have finished all your jobs.

Thomas, you're not a bossy boiler. You're a Really Useful Engine, and I really enjoyed working with you.

I don't want the Fat Controller to think I can't deliver the mail. I'll have to work out how to do it myself.

Percy, will you tell me how to deliver the mail?

Of course I will! I deliver the parcels in a special order. I always start with the delivery that is furthest away. Then I work my way back to Tidmouth Sheds.
