Gordon is the fastest express engine on the Island. He thinks that he is the important engine on Sodor. 1 fine lovely afternoon Gordon the big blue engine was feeling very pleased with himself. His smart blue paint glistened in the beautiful sunshine just as he sped along the line. He reached the junction just as Rosie trundled in with some trucks. Gordon was surprised to see her. “What are you doing here, Rosie? you should be at the next station by now.” said Gordon, snootily. “I know, Gordon.” sighed Rosie. “Those Freight Cars have been crazy and naughty all afternoon. “Off we go!” said Rosie.
