Goofs

 * Edward wouldn't have bumped the flatbed and stopped, he would have pushed it along.
 * The shunter, after Emily puffs off, looks as if he is guiding Thomas back to the hopper. Shouldn't of he been trying to stop Thomas from reversing and hitting the flatbed and Edward?
 * When Emily reverses, the driver and fireman are still looking forward.
