Based on the story of the same name from Duke the Lost Engine.

Holidaymakers to the Island like riding in Duke's special train "The Picnic". One evening though Duke is too ill to manage on his own, so Falcon and Stuart assist him. Stuart teases Duke about this, but Duke gets his own back on Stuart by playing a trick on him and he proves that he still has a lot of life left in him.

Based on the story, "Sir Handel" from Four Little Engines.

Skarloey and Rheneas are tired old engines who work very hard on their own line. Sir Handel and Peter Sam (formerly known as Falcon and Stuart) are brought in to help them. But Sir Handel is in a bad mood, he only makes matters worse by deliberately derailing himself to get out of work.
