Stuart and Falcon, Duke and others in “Granpuff”

Engines come and engines go. Granpuff goes on forever.

You impertinent scallywags. Whatever are you engines coming to?

Never mind, Granpuff.

We're only young once.

Well, you'd better mind, unless you want to end up like Smudger.

Oh, Granpuff, whatever happened?!

Smudger was a showoff. [has a flashback of said engine] He rode roughly and often came off the rails. I warned him to be careful, but he took no notice.

Listen, Dukey. Who worries about a few spills?

"We do here", I said, but Smudger just laughed.

Until one day, manager said he was going to make him useful at last. Smudger stopped laughing then.

Well, why? What did he do?

He turned him into a generator. He's still out there behind our shed. He'll never move again!
