What is George Meets His Match about?

George the steamroller thinks he is far more important than the railway engines and enjoys making rude comments about them. When he meets Sir Handel, the two boast about their strength and decide to settle the matter with a race. But their contest soon leads them into trouble. Can George prove that he really is the best, or will the engines show him that pride can cause problems? Along the way, George discovers that even rivals can become friends.
