You Can Do it, Toby!

"Slowcoach!" "I'm trying me 'ardest!"

- Gordon and Toby

You Can Do it, Toby! is the twenty-second episode of the eighth season.

Plot
Edward is needed at Brendam and Toby is sent to shunt at Wellsworth, but Toby is worried that if Gordon stalls on the hill he won't be able to do much. Sure enough, Gordon stalls, so Toby is sent to act as a "banker". Toby's first efforts come to nothing, but after hearing Thomas and Percy cheering for him he grits his teeth and slowly but surely pushes Gordon over the top.
