A Screaming Whistle

Story 7/8 of Favorite Places, Favorite Faces.

Characters: Sir Topham Hatt, Toby, Edward, Fergus (mentioned)

Things had never been good since Fergus' accident. Engines were breaking rules left and right, and Sir Topham Hatt's patice was nearly gone. Some engines were a least good, but still, Sir Topham Hatt wanted things running smoothly. Edward and Toby had to be in charge at the Cement Works and work there until Fergus returned. One cloudy day, Sir Topham was leaving Tidmouth Sheds when Henry shouted;

Henry: "What job am I doing sir?"

Sir Topham Hatt: "Henry, just do the jobs that I assigned you."

Henry: "But I haven't gotten any jobs assigned to me yet sir."

Sir Topham Hatt: "Henry, just work in the yard for now."

Henry was shocked; Sir Topham Hatt had never used a tone like that before. He sadly did his job, shunting. Meanwhile, Sir Topham Hatt realized what he did and felt bad for Henry.

Edward: "We need some more cars please Henry."

Henry: "Yes Edward."

Toby: "A little more brakevans please Henry."

Henry: "Yes Toby."

Later that day, Fergus returned back to The Cement Works, and The Fat Controller apogized to Henry. He would work on his tone of voice.
