Slow Down, James

Slow Down, James is a magazine story.

Plot
One day, the Fat Controller asks James to pull the Express. James is excited to show off his shiny red paint.

As he pulls the coaches, Henry, Percy and Thomas all tell him to slow down, but James dismisses them, figuring they're all jealous that he gets to pull the Express.

When James reaches some workmen by the track, they call out for him to slow down, as the tracks are covered in mud. James brakes hard, but still gets sprayed with mud. After that, it takes a long time and a lot of scrubbing for James to be a shiny red engine again.
