Plot

Thomas is bored of shunting coaches and wants to pull them, but no one takes notice of his complaining until Henry falls ill. The next morning, no one is available to pull the train and so Thomas gets to pull it. Unfortunately, he is so impatient that he starts without the train, and fails to notice until a signalman points it out to him. Thomas, embarrassed, returns and pulls the train, but for a long time afterwards the other engines tease Thomas about the incident.
