Old Iron

One day, James is forced to wait at Wellsworth for Edward to arrive with his train. James is infuriated by this and grumbles about Edward being late again, though Edward finds it funny. That evening, James is still grumbling when he puffs back to the shed. He complains to Thomas and Percy that Edward is always making the other engines wait and clanks about like a lot of "old iron". Thomas and Percy are outraged at this remark and tell James that Edward could beat him in a race any time, to which James sarcastically says he would like to see.
