Bertie was waiting at the traffic light. He started with a roar and followed Thomas again. Now, Thomas caught up to his top speed. Bertie struggled but Thomas was too fast. the tunnel leaving Bertie toiling far behind I've done it I've done it gasped Thomas we've done it hooray we've done it hooray Annie and Clarabel sang as they entered the last station they were all there to celebrate Thomas' victory but they gave Bertie a big welcome to well done Thomas said Bertie that was fun but to beat you up that hill I would have to have wings and be a plane now they keep so busy they often talk about their career but Bertie's passengers don't I don't like them bouncing like peas on a frying pan and the fat controller has warned Thomas not to run at dangerous speeds, so while you and me would like to have another race, I don't think you ever will. oh
