Thomas and the Tuba [8.1]

Percy's New Whistle [8.2]

Bert: [after Percy whistles to 'Arry and Bert] Call that a whistle? Just listen to this! [blasts his horn]
'Arry and Bert: Diesels can do anything better than steamies!
Percy: My whistle is just as good as your silly old horns!
The Fat Controller: [after Percy used his whistle properly] Well done, Percy! You blew your whistle at the right time, and saved Thomas from an accident. You are a really useful engine, and a safe one.

Thomas to the Rescue [8.3]

Thomas: [after Diesel shunts him under the hopper] Cinders and ashes!
Diesel: What's that horrible smell? Oh, it's just a stinky old steam engine.
Thomas: How rude!
Diesel: No wonder the Fat Controller is thinking of scrapping steamies.
Thomas: I don't believe you.
Salty: Ahoy there, me hearties! Fresh diesel from the Mainland!
[Diesel and Mavis get refueled and Diesel starts to rev his engine]
Diesel: Haha! This new fuel makes my axles tingle.
Thomas: Coal doesn't make my axles tingle. I wish I had fresh fuel from the depot.
Mavis: [about the new fuel] Oh, my!
Diesel: I'm the fastest engine in the world! Look at me go!
[suddenly, he breaks down]
Diesel: I feel sick.
Mavis: [breaking down as well] So do I.

Henry and the Wishing Tree [8.4]

Henry: What are those children doing?
Thomas: That's the old Sodor wishing tree.

James Gets a New Coat [8.5]

James: [shows off his new coat of paint] Look at me! Don't I look fine?

James: But best of all is being Really Useful and splendid - like me!

Thomas Saves the Day [8.6]

Thomas: [after his accident with the difficult bend] I can't go around the difficult bend. I'm not a useful engine without Annie and Clarabel.

The Fat Controller: You have saved my new station. You are a very brave and useful engine.
Thomas: Thank you, sir.

Percy's Big Mistake [8.7]

[Cranky is loading pipes onto Percy's trucks]
Percy: Hurry up, slow coach! I must be on time!
Cranky: I'll take as long as I like!
Gordon: Now look what you've done! What will Sir Topham Hatt say?!
The Fat Controller: Where is Percy? He has caused confusion and delay!
Gordon: He just left very quickly, sir!
Thomas: He heard you at the sheds, sir. He thought you were sending him to be scrapped!
The Fat Controller: I think I need a word with Percy. You must all help me find him!

Thomas, Emily and the Snowplough [8.8]

Thomas: Hmph! If they won't tell me, I don't want to know! [leaves]

Emily's New Route [8.10]

The Fat Controller: This means I won't have any toast or crumpets for breakfast. If you are late again, you will have to do the Black Loch Run instead of James!

Trucks: [teasing Emily] Emily the late engine! Emily the late engine!

Thomas and the Firework Display [8.11]

The Fat Controller: A sparkling dragon! It must be Thomas and James!

Gordon Takes Charge [8.12]

Gordon: You’re doing it all wrong, don’t wheesh until the passengers are on board, watch me.

Gordon: You’re learning a little bit, but you’re still NOT doing it right. Watch me.

The Fat Controller: [after Gordon has crashed into the snow] I asked you to teach Percy, not show off all afternoon.

Edward the Great [8.14]

Narrator: Edward is the same color as Thomas and the same size as James.
Driver: You have beaten Gordon's record!
Spencer: Of course. I'm faster and finer than all the engines on Sodor put together.
Gordon: Spencer's just a big silver showoff.
[The Fat Controller shows up]
The Fat Controller: Spencer will take the Duke and Duchess to their Summer House. Another engine will take their furniture.
Thomas, Percy, Gordon and James: Please, sir, may I go?
The Fat Controller: You all have other work to do. Edward will take the furniture.
Gordon: Fancy sending a back engine to do an express engine's job!
James: He'll lose the race and let the old railway down!
Thomas: Spencer has a bigger boiler, but that just means more hot air.
Percy: An honest steamie can beat a pouty puffer any day!
Edward: [slowly puffs out of Knapford] Will do my best. Will do my best.
Gordon: Edward is a waste of steam.

Gordon: [eyes Diesel on his line] Out of my way! Express train coming through!
[Diesel reverses onto another track]

Gordon: [after beginning to rattle] Oh, dear! Oh, dear! Diesel was right - I am falling apart! What if The Fat Controller scraps me?

Thomas and the Circus [8.16]

Salty: Arr, would you be needing a hand there, matey?

Thomas Gets It Right [8.17]

Farmer McColl: Stop, Thomas! You have broken my eggs!
Thomas: Cinders and ashes! I'm sorry. I just wanted to be really useful.
The Fat Controller: You have all worked hard and been really useful engines.
Thomas: I've only made one journey, sir. And I've broken Farmer McColl's eggs.
The Fat Controller: But most of the eggs were delivered safely. Farmer McColl gave the broken ones to me, and I love having scrambled eggs for my tea! You, Thomas, are a really useful engine.

As Good as Gordon [8.18]

Emily: It doesn't matter if you are late.
James: You must wait your turn!
Emily: Express trains don't wait.
The Fat Controller: [upon hearing Emily's mischief] You should have waited, and now you have caused confusion and delay! You left the brake coach, stranded Bertie's passengers, and bumped your carriages. You must learn to be more patient.

Emily: [spots a water tower obstructing her line] Oh, no! Hurry up! [whistles impatiently]

Emily: I've got an urgent delivery!
[Elizabeth returns to try clearing the track, and Emily crossly blows her whistle again, Thomas arrives]
Thomas: Hello.
Emily: She won't do a thing I tell her.
Thomas: That's because you're a "big bossy boiler". You should try asking nicely for a change.
Emily: [takes a deep breath] I'm sorry I was rude, but can you help me get this timber to Farmer McColl's? Please? It's to help the baby calves.
Elizabeth: Why certainly! I'll get your track cleared in no time!

Thomas: Cinders and ashes!
Emily: Help! It's the ghost! Let's get away from here!
[after Arry and Bert exhibit their antics to Thomas and Emily]
The Fat Controller: What is all this fuss and bother?! It has caused confusion and delay!
Thomas: But sir, the flatbeds were rattling.
Emily: And we heard moaning...
Thomas: ...And groaning!
The Fat Controller: [to 'Arry and Bert] Do you know anything about this?

James: [running out of water] I don't feel well.
Driver: Your water tanks have run dry.

Edward: I'm sorry. You wouldn't take my slate trucks to the quarry and now I'm running late with my passenger train.
Salty: Why didn't you fill water this morning, matey? [James explains his troubles] I've heard you were too busy to help Edward too!
James: I was in a hurry! My job is the most important!
