The Little Engine Who Raced Ahead.Episode Description:
Thomas is shunting trucks in Knapford yard, when he spots something odd. It later appears that what he saw was the new diesel boxcab on Sodor, by the name Philip. Philip is a keen but curious kind of engine. The bigger engines finds him a bit annoying and refer him as a show off. One day, Philip bumps into Gordon, and asks him if he wants to race. Gordon says no, and continues to get water from the water tower. Later, Gordon is pulling the express when Philip asks Thomas where he is. Thomas responds by saying he is pulling the express, but might have time later. When Gordon is about to go to rest, Philip asks him for a race. As Gordon says go away, Philip mistakes it for meaning go, as to start the race, and he races away. In the shed at night, he tells the other engines that he beat Gordon. The other engines laugh, but Gordon doesn't.
