Thomas, James and others in “Thomas, Percy and Old Slow Coach”

Everyone's so much happier when spring time comes.

Everyone except the Fat Controller. He seems to be working us harder than ever. I'm tired of these coastal runs.

He just wants everything to be ready for the holidays. Anyway, salty air makes me all cheerful in my smokebox.

Pah! It's the countryside that really gets me fired up. It's the only place to be.
