Hello!
There are lots and lots of

And today, I want to

I've got something important
I wanted to tell you.

Don't interrupt.

I have an important
announcement for all of you.

[metal clanks]
[groaning]
- Hello, sir,
and, uh, sorry, sir.
I miscalculated how long
it would take me to stop,
by, uh, quite a lot.
- I'll say.
[chuckles]
You nearly bumped me
off the rails.
I wasn't expecting you
until tomorrow.
Nia, Percy, Thomas, Emily,
this is Rebecca.
- Hello!
- Welcome!
- Hi, Rebecca!
- Hello, my friend!
- Hi, everyone.
- Rebecca's going to be staying
with you at Tidmouth Sheds,
and helping Gordon
during busy times.
- What?
I don't need any--
- She'll help ensure there's
no confusion or delay.
- Oh, the indignity.
[whistle toots]
- Come on, Rebecca.
I'll show you the way
to Tidmouth Sheds.
There had been a lot of
changes on the railway.
Edward had
moved to Wellsworth,
which was nearer
to his branch line.
[clank]
- Ah!
- Oops.
[soft laugh]
- And Henry had moved
to Vicarstown with Rosie.
So even though Nia had
joined us at Tidmouth Sheds,
there was room
for Rebecca there too.

Wow!

I thought you were the one

"Gordon"?

Little brother.

getting everywhere too early.
You have caused
confusion and del--
oh, uh, confusion and, um--
well, uh, [stammers]
a great deal of confusion!
- Yes, sir.
Sorry, sir.
- I can't run a railway
if engines don't
follow the timetable.
Otherwise, passengers
miss their trains.
- I didn't realize
how early I've been, sir.
And from what I heard,
all the engines on your railway
are so fast and so strong and--
well, I didn't want
to be known as a slow coach.
- It's not a race or a contest.
You just need to
keep to the timetable.

Thank you, sir.

And I don't know why you

"little brother."
You look the same size to me.
If anything,
I think Gordon looks bigger.

See you later, Gordon!

- When Rebecca came to Sodor,
she worried that the others
were better than she was.
Rebecca tried very hard
to do her best.
But I know that sometimes
when I try too hard,
I make mistakes.
[steam whooshes]
When I first came to Sodor,
I left the station before I
was coupled up to my coaches.
And when Rebecca
came to Sodor,
she was leaving earlier
than she was supposed to.
And soon, she was so early
that passengers were
missing their trains
and she was
getting in the way.
And that was a mistake.
Being too early was not
so useful after all.
[steam whooshes]
But it's okay to make mistakes!
Everybody makes them!
That's how you learn to do
things better, just like I did.
- Come on, Thomas!
- It's time to go!
