Lazy Wheels

Plot
Thomas is shunting some trucks ready for James, but he gets cross when Gordon rushes by with the Express which makes him late. But, things get worse when the signalman is unable to switch the points back because they have jammed. Workmen fix the points as quickly as possible, but Thomas is delayed as he can't get the trucks to James, and James is delayed as he can't leave without his train. The other engines tease Thomas and call him "Lazy Wheels". But, once the points are fixed, Thomas and James are very late. However, when Thomas comes back to the engine shed, he quietly calls the other engines "Lazy Wheels" as a joke!
