Numberjacks and the Story About Rheneas/Transcript

Michael Angelis: Duncan would not stop grumbling. He grumbled that he wasn't polished enough. He grumbled that he was overworked. Most of all, he grumbled about the passengers.

Tom Clements: The engines and all the Numberjacks were ready for Rheneas coming home. They are wearing a nice clothes and costumes. But Duncan thinks that their clothes were silly.

Skarloey: I'm ashamed of you, Duncan.

Michael Angelis: Said Skarloey.

Skarloey: Thank goodness Rheneas was coming home soon. Perhaps he'll teach you some sense before it's too late.

Duncan: What is Rheneas to do with me?

Skarloey: Rheneas saved our railway.

Michael Angelis: Replied Skarloey.

Skarloey: Well.

Michael Angelis: Began Skarloey. Skarloey: It was before you came here. Things were bad. Rheneas and I have to keep the trains running or I'll railway will have to close.

Peter Sam: How awful.

Michael Angelis: Murmured Peter Sam.

Skarloey: I've tried hard.

Michael Angelis: Continued Skarloey.

Skarloey: But my old wheels ached. Rheneas understood.

Rheneas: It's my turn now.

Skarloey: He telled me. He was often short of steam but he always struggled to the station and then rested there.

Rheneas: I mustn't stop between stations.

Michael Angelis: He'd say.

Rheneas: The passengers wouldn't like it.

Duncan: Pshaw!

Michael Angelis: Huffed Duncan. He had stopped on the viaduct and hadn't cared at all.
