Henry Helps

Henry Helps is a magazine story, illustrated using photographs from the television series.

Plot
Henry and Gordon are waiting in the Yard. It is Gordon's turn to pull a goods train instead of the express. Gordon warns Henry to keep on the rails with the express and Henry sulkily sets about his work. As Henry chuggs up the hill, he sees some derailed trucks - they belonged to Gordon. Soon, Cranky is called and the trucks are hastily put back onto the rails. Later, the Fat Controller thanks Henry and his driver at the Main Station. The Fat Controller tells Henry that he is a really useful engine - when he's not sulking that is!

Characters

 * Henry
 * Gordon
 * Sir Topham Hatt
 * Old Bailey (incorrectly referred to as Henry's driver; does not speak)

Trivia

 * The line, "'Be careful with my Express carriages, Henry, you're not pulling the "Flying Kipper" now. Mind you keep on the rails today" is a line recycled from the first season episode Off the Rails.
 * The events that take place in the first season episode The Flying Kipper is mentioned.

Goofs

 * In the first illustration it is daylight, in the second and third it is night-time, and in the final photo it is daylight again.
 * It makes no sense for Cranky to put the trucks back onto the rails, as he would have to be dismantled and resembled. It would make much more sense to summon the Breakdown Train.
 * Henry's driver is actually Old Bailey the stationmaster.
