James next door to him in the shed, pretty much calls him a lazy bum.
Screw you, Henry
The Fat Controller has little sympathy for poor Ol' Henry too. He tells Henry, " That he is too expensive. And if he can't fix him, he'll be replaced."
That is so cruel. I actually like Henry. He is no Edward but, Henry seems like a kind of okay engine. This is sadder then the tunnel story.
Henry looks like me when I have to get up before noon
Henry goes off to work and low and behold, The Fat Controller is at the platform. He is sporting some lovely overalls for the occasion. He rides in Henry's cab to try to figure out what is going on with Henry. He tells the crew that, "Henry is a bad steamer."
But, I look damn sexy in my overalls!
Poor Henry tries the best he can to save himself but, it was no good. He runs out of steam right at Edward's station. Henry limps off to a siding without his coaches. Edward takes over the train for Henry. Henry knows he is doomed. This horrible, not even the sight of Edward can cheer me up now.
Cute little Edward, please cheer up Henry and Jane Slicker
The Fat Controller asks Henry's crew, "What do they think is the dilly o with Henry?"
The fireman explains, that Henry has a small firebox and can't keep up with the heat. He needs some high quality Welsh Coal.
Edward sums up my face right now.
Is this the equivalent of a small penis and Viagra for a steam engine?
The Fat Controller goes all Mr. Dink from Doug, "Very Expensive". But, he shall order some. He wants to give Henry a third chance.
Henry's Welsh Coal arrives and Henry and his crew are excited. They are going to show The Fat Controller how awesome Henry is.
The narration gets very technical at this time about how the coal was heated. For the sake of my fingers, they tossed it in. Henry is worried that the fireman is spoiling is fire but, they get to the station and Henry is ready to go.
Remember when I was stiff when I came out of the tunnel?
Henry let's off steam and The Fat Controller asks, "How's he is feeling?"
Henry answers, "He feels fine."
After a few jokes about holding Henry back, Henry sets off and we get a run of the Henry Theme music. I miss those themes.
Go Henry, go!
Henry ran so well that he was early to the station. And of course, we have to shoe horn Thomas in before the story is over. Henry calls Thomas lazy and puffs off. Oh come on, Henry he called you fat think of something meaner.
Thomas your face is loose!
And with his special coal, Henry is saved! Thank goodness.
