Edward's Day Out

Narrator: once upon a time, there is a little blue engine named Edward, who lived in a big shed alongside a few other engines as well, some of them were bigger than Edward and boasted about it.

98462: I should be the one to come out today

Gordon: you, I not think so, I'm the strongest and plus I pull the express

Edward: well I haven't been out for a long time, maybe I could

Gordon: oh they won't pick you, they want big strong enignes like us

Red Engine: leave him alone Gordon

Emily: well I hope they do pick you Edward, you are really useful

Edward: thank you Emily, we'll just need to wait and see

Emily: true, but still let's hope they do pick you

Molly: y-yes, I also hope they do too

Driver:*comes alongside the shed* why so sad Edward, would you like to come out today?

Edward: oh yes please sir

Fireman:*gets in to Edward's cab and starts shoveling coal in to his fire*

Driver:*starts cleaning Edward*

Red engine/Emily: good luck today Edward

Edward: thank you

Driver:*pulls the regulator*

Edward:*whistles and puffs off* look at me know, look at me know

87546: what?!

Emily: that will teach you for being so rude

Red Engine: indeed

********************************************************************************

Coach 1: I wonder who take us out today

Coach 2: we'll have to wait and see

Edward:*backs in to the sidings* hello there girls

Coaches: Edward

Coach 3: we haven't seen you for a long time

Coach 2: please don't bump us around like most of the other engines do

Narrator: Edward carefully buffers up to the coaches and takes them to the platform

Coach 1: thank you Edward, we are glad you're taking out today

Edward: so am I *stops at the platform* get in quickly please

Narrator: the passengers boarded quickly and Edward waited for the guard, but there wasn't no sound of a whistle or a flag being waved

Driver: what the...? *to Stationmaster* hi stationmaster, have you seen the guard

Stationmaster: I'm afraid not

Driver: oh okay then *to the porter* have you seen the guard?

Porter: oh yes, at the pub the other night

Fireman: how can that help?!

Porter: well you did asks

Narrator: for awhile there wasn't no guard

Edward: are we ever going to start, my first run and there's no guard

Little boy: here he comes

Narrator: the guard was running down the hill with his flags in one hand and a sandwich in the other, he run to the platform, blow his whistle and jumps in to the last coach

Driver: let's go

Edward:*puffs out of the station* here we go

Narrator: Edward had a wonderful run and met some old friends along with away

Edward: hello there Mr and Mrs Payson

Mr Payson: hello there Edward

Mrs Payson: good to see you out and about

Edward: thank you Mrs Payson

Narrator: Edward made it back to the station in good time and then returned to the shed

Emily: you must have had a great day Edward

Molly: y-yes, I agree

Edward: yes, I have Emily and Molly, I wonder what the others think

Narrator: but he didn't hear that they thought, he was so happy and tired he went to sleep at once
Here is the first story of The Railway Series retell: Edward's Day Out

Note: in my headcanon Emily come to Sodor in 1917 and Molly come in 1922.
