 * George Carlin: Toby is a tram engine. He has cowcatchers and side plates and doesn't look like a steam engine at all. He takes from farms and villages to the main line and is cheerful to everyone he meets. He has a coach called Henrietta who has seen better days.
 * Henrietta: It's not fair at all.
 * George Carlin: She grumbles, remembering she used to be full and nine cars would rattle behind her. Now there were only three or four for the farms and factories send their goods mostly by truck. Toby is always careful. The cars, buses and trucks often had accidents. Toby hasn't had an accident for years. But the buses are crowded and Henrietta is empty. A lady and a stout gentleman stood on Toby's platform. He was of course Sir Topham Hatt. But Toby didn't noticed yet.
 * Children: Come on, grandfather.
 * George Carlin: Cried the children.
 * Children: Do look at this engine.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: That's a tram engine, Stephen.
 * George Carlin: Said Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Bridget: Is it electric?
 * George Carlin: Asked Bridget.
 * Toby: Whoosh!
 * George Carlin: Hissed Toby.
 * Stephen: Shh!
 * George Carlin: Said her brother.
 * Stephen: You've offended him.
 * Bridget: But trams are electric, aren't they?
 * Sir Topham Hatt: They are mostly, and this is a steam tram.
 * Children: May we go in it, grandfather, please?
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Stop!
 * George Carlin: Said Sir Topham Hatt to the conductor. They all scrambled into Henrietta.
 * Henrietta: Hip-hip hooray!
 * George Carlin: Chanted Henrietta. But Toby didn't sing.
 * Toby: Electric indeed! Electric indeed!
 * George Carlin: He snorted. He was proud of being a steam tram.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: What is your name?
 * George Carlin: Asked Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Toby: Toby, sir.
 * George Carlin: Thank you, Toby, for a very nice ride.
 * Toby: Thank you, sir.
 * George Carlin: Said Toby. He felt better now.
 * Toby: This gentleman...
 * George Carlin: He thought.
 * Toby: ...is a gentleman who knows how to speak to engines.
 * George Carlin: The children came every day for two weeks. Sometimes they rode with the conductor, sometimes in empty cars. On the last day of all the driver invited them into his cab. All were sorry when they had to go away and Sir Topham Hatt and his family thanked everyone.
 * Toby: Come again soon.
 * George Carlin: Replied Toby.
 * Children: We will, we will.
 * George Carlin: Called the children. And they waved till Toby was out of sight. The months passed. Toby had few cars and fewer passengers.
 * Toby's Driver: Our last day, Toby.
 * George Carlin: Said his driver one morning.
 * Toby's Driver: The manager says we must close tomorrow.
 * George Carlin: That day, everyone will have a chance of a last ride. The passengers joked and sang, but Toby and his driver wish they wouldn't.
 * Passengers: Goodbye, Toby.
 * George Carlin: Said the passengers afterwards.
 * Passengers: We're sorry your line is closing down.
 * Toby: So am I.
 * George Carlin: Sighed Toby.
 * Toby: Nobody wants me.
 * George Carlin: Toby thought and went unhappily to sleep. Next morning, the shed was flung open and old Toby woke with a start to his driver waving a piece of paper at him.
 * Toby's Driver: Wake up, Toby!
 * George Carlin: He shouted excitedly.
 * Toby's Driver: The mail has just arrived and there's a letter for us from the stout gentleman. Maybe it's good news.
