What is Percy's promise about?
Percy is excited to take the children home from the beach, but a sudden storm turns the journey into a dangerous adventure. Rain lashes the railway, the tracks become slippery and the wind howls around the little green engine. Percy could easily turn back, yet he has made a promise and is determined to keep it. With courage and careful driving, he battles through the storm and proves that even a small engine can be very reliable.
