Plot
"City of Truro" has come to visit the North Western Railway, and although most of the engines get along well with him Gordon is jealous of his record (he was the first engine to go 100 mp/h), claims he is a liar because he has no dome and tries to go as fast as him. Unfortunately for him, his dome is blown off at the viaduct and when he returns to Tidmouth Sheds the engines make him into a laughing stock.
