"Hi Thomas, How are you"?. "I'm Fine Thanks!" Peep "Got to go Thomas, Can't be late" and Gordon left with his Express for London. After about 10 minutes, Thomas left Elsbridge For Knapford where his trucks were waiting. As he arrived, he spotted Percy shunting coaches for Edward to take to Wellsworth to collect some school children to take them on their excursion. "Hello Edward" whistled Thomas as he puffed into platform 3. "Hello Thomas. How are you today?". "I'm Fine.
