Pearl: Greaseball Stop!

Control: Something's holding the champion back! It's Pearl!

Pearl: Rusty Help! Help!

(Greaseball then stops in a hazardous part of the tunnel and starts to beat up Electra. His impacts and blows against Electra cause the tunnel to start falling apart.(which is impossible as they are making no physical contact with the tunnel wall or supports; which were already weakened from Ruhrgold's earlier collision)Electra strikes back and rams Greaseball into the wall, and into a circuit box causing the electrical circuits to go haywire.

Caboose: See'ya Pearl!

(Caboose grabs Pearl and shoves her down the tunnel as she screams in terror.)

Pearl:(screaming Terrorly)

Control: Oh, no We have a runaway.

(At the same moment, Rusty and Dustin and Dinah come racing down the tunnel whilst dodging falling debris, with Rusty managing to catch Pearl from behind, unwittingly saving her from being electrocuted by a stray wire.)

Rusty: I got you, Pearl.

(Back at the fight, Caboose tries to stop the two engines, but Electra shoves him into the supports, weakening them even more and knocking Caboose unconscious. Electra continues to fight with Greaseball until Rusty, now both pulling Dustin and Dinah and pushing Pearl, Ashley And Buffy, shoves both quarrelling engines into the tunnel walls.)

Control: Watch out! It's gonna explode!

(The tunnel supports cave in and debris lands on the main circuit box, causing the tunnel to explode. Rusty, Pearl, and Dustin barely make it out of the tunnel unharmed.)

Control: At the Finishing line. Here comes Dustin, Ashley, Buffy, Dinah, Pearl And Starlight Express. Yes! Starlight Express is Winner! Starlight Express is the champion in the World! Starlight Express for lap of honour.

(After Rusty returns to the train yard victorious, Pearl, out of shame, quietly leaves.)

Rusty: Where's Pearl? Where's Pearl? I must find Pearl, I must find Pearl, I must find Pearl, I must find Pearl!

Control: Oh No, The Starlight Express was Rusty.

All: Where's Starlight gone? He must be the Starlight Express?

Part 25: One Rock & Roll Too Many
Ashley: Hold on a minute.

Buffy: What is that?

(when out from the tunnel rolls the mangled wrecks of Greaseball, Caboose, and Electra.)

Greaseball, Caboose And Electra: One Rock 'n' Roll too many. One night's sleep too few. Too much ringing that bell. Takes its toll, out of you.

Caboose: The sound's too loud.

Electra: And the light's too bright.

Greaseball: My chains are too heavy, and my pants are too tight.

Greaseball, Caboose And Electra: One Rock 'n' Roll too many. Takes its toll... out of you. One Rock 'n' Roll too many. One more farewell show. Come on clap your hands.

Caboose: Are you having a good time?

Greaseball And Electra: No!

Caboose: My breakdance is broken! My hip has hopped!

Greaseball: My mojo ain't working!

Electra: And my pill has just popped!

Greaseball, Caboose And Electra: One Rock 'n' Roll too many. Takes its toll... out of you. One Rock 'n' Roll too many. I can't hear no more!

Greaseball: What did you say?

Dinah: Come on Greaseball, you can spell it.

Greaseball: Okay Dinah, I'm S.O.R.R.R.Y.

Poppa: You could be converted.

Greaseball: What d'you mean?

Poppa: Sure could - and with steam, you'd be under your own control!

Control: Engines must obey control! Engines must obey control! Do what you're told!

All: Shut it, Control!

Part 28: Light at the End of the Tunnel
Poppa: Diesel is for unbelievers. Electricity is wrong. Steam has got the power That'll pull you along! There's a light at the end of the tunnel. There's a light at the end of the tunnel. The inside might be as black as the night.

All: There's a light at the end of the tunnel. There's a light at the end of the tunnel. The inside might be as black as the night. But at the end of the tunnel there's a light.

Girls: there's a light.

Poppa: It's the power of James Watt, the steaming Scot.

Momma And Belle: The man who watched the pot "hey I've got a brilliant plot, when that steam is hot it seems to make a lot of power."

Poppa: It could turn a wheel ...

All:
