Gordon was cross.
"Why should Henry have a new shape? "He goes off to Crewe, leaving us to do his work, "and comes back all happy.
Disgraceful.
"And Henry whistles too much.
lt isn't wrong but we just don't do it.
" Henry didn't feel happy any more.
"Never mind," whispered Percy.
"l'm glad you're home.
" "Goodbye," called Gordon.
"Remember what l said.
" Later, Henry stopped at Edward's station.
"Hello, Henry.
l was pleased to hear your happy whistle.
" "Thanks," smiled Henry.
"Can you hear something?" "lt sounds like Gordon.
But he never whistles like that.
" lt was Gordon, rushing down the hill.
He didn't look at Henry or Edward.
He screamed straight through.
"Well!" said Edward.
Henry chuckled and told Edward what Gordon had said.
(High whistling) Meanwhile, Gordon screeched along.
The noise was awful.
(High whistling) At the station, everyone held their ears.
- "Take him away, and stop that noise!" - (High whistling) Gordon wouldn't stop whistling until they knocked his whistle valve in place.
(Whistling stops) Gordon slunk into the shed, glad it was empty.
"lt isn't wrong," murmured Henry, "but we just don't do it.
" No one mentioned whistles.
Next morning, Henry was enjoying himself.
"l feel so well!" "Tickety-tock!" hummed his coaches.
He saw some boys on a bridge.
"Hello!" he whistled.
- (Clattering) - "Oh!" The boys didn't wave.
They dropped stones on him.
"They've broken our glass," sobbed the coaches.
The passengers were cross.
"Call the police!" "No," said the driver.
"Leave it to us.
"Can you keep a secret? Henry's going to sneeze at those boys.
Lots of people were waiting at the station to watch.
"Henry has plenty of ashes.
Keep all windows shut.
"Henry's excited, aren't you?" Henry was feeling stuffed up.
Soon they saw the boys with stones.
"Ready, Henry? Sneeze hard when l tell you.
"Now!" "At-choo-shoo!" "Well done, Henry!" laughed his driver.
Henry had taught Gordon and silly boys a lesson, with a whistle and a sneeze.
