Once the water wheel is recovered, it is chained on so it will not fall off. Edward arrives at the Smelters just in time, to Gordon's shock since Edward had beaten him in a race. It rolls down the hill and onto some flatbeds Gordon is taking to the Smelters.Įdward chases Gordon, going along every shortcut he knows while no longer caring about anyone seeing him anymore. He is indeed seen by Oliver and Arthur who are going down the other side, but the water wheel is very heavy and the ropes tear in half, causing the waterwheel to come loose. Realising that his long journey has made him late, Edward decides to go up Gordon's Hill as it is the fastest way to Great Waterton and he will be seen by the engines on the hill. Edward does not notice this until he stops at a red signal. However, as he is travelling, the ropes dig in to the sharp sides of the waterwheel. Soon enough, Edward arrives at a junction where he is warned that the line ahead is bumpy, but nevertheless continues onwards as the school is nearby and he wants the children to see his magnificent waterwheel. This makes Edward decide against using the express track and instead take the water wheel along a branch line so people can see him which makes him very proud. After Edward collects the water wheel from the docks, Thomas sees the water wheel which he calls a very special special. Edward is told to take a brass water wheel to Great Waterton Waterworks and to use Gordon's express track as it is the smoothest line on the island (to Gordon's shock).
