Heroes

"Actually, Gordon, when we saw you, we thought this was the scrapyard."

- Ben

Heroes is the twenty-fourth episode of the third season.

In the US, it first aired on the Shining Time Station episode Mr. Conductor's Evil Twin.

Plot
Bill and Ben are bored at the China Clay Workings and are delighted to be asked to work at Wellsworth for the day, but they unwisely ask the trucks for advice and so the yard gets in a mess, causing Gordon to be late with the Express. The next day at the Workings, a landslide devastates the quarry, but Bill and Ben get all the workmen out just in time. The next day, the Fat Controller arrives on board Edward, and praises the twins for saving the day.

 * When the twins say "Thank goodness we're here" a bug crawls from Bill's line of trucks to Ben's and back.
 * The roof of the building is made of cardboard, as seen when it absorbs the water from the water tower.
 * In the British narration, the Fat Controller says "Hooray, hooray, hooray" without enthusiasm.
