00:00Favo the engine. There he is, look. Just an ordinary looking steam engine, isn't he?

00:09I mean, you'll never think to look at him that he's got a dragon in his firebox.

00:17Morning, Dai Station.

00:18Morning, Jones.

00:19I've got a surprise for you, Dai.

00:21Oh, have you? What's that, then?

00:23Good morning, Mr. Dai Station. Bada.

00:27Oh. Oh. Good morning.

00:30Don't shake hands with him, Dai. He's red hot. This is Idris. He's a dragon.

00:34Oh. Oh, I see. Livestock, is it?

00:39You know, Jones, there's regulations. Regulations about the conveyance of livestock.

00:46Just a moment, if you please.

00:48Oh, dear Idris. Dai, there is a stickler for regulations.

00:52What you got there, Dai?

00:54It says here, all livestock must be conveyed in the appropriate container.

01:00What? Do you mean you want me to climb into that?

01:03If you please.

01:04But I'm red hot.

01:05I am afraid I must insist. The proper container, you know.

01:09Well, if you say so.

01:12Get someone, fire! Fire! Fire!

01:19I was afraid that would happen.

01:21Water! Water! Fire! Fire!

01:24No! No! Not water! Water is stuck and death the dragon!

01:29Dai! Dai, wait! Wait!

01:30Stand clear!

01:33Oh, he got away.

01:35Oh, thank goodness for that. Oh, Dai, you could have killed him with that bucket of water.

01:39But it was red hot on burning.

01:41Of course it was. I told you, he's a red hot dragon.

01:43He has to be kept red hot or he'll die of cold.

01:46Oh, where is he now?

01:48He's gone down a chimney.

01:53That's Eli the Baker's chimney, I think.

01:55Come on Dai, run.

01:57Run, is it? Oh, I don't know about that.

02:00Ah, yes.

02:03Out here we go.

02:05Oh, there's fancy bread, look.

02:10That's not bread, that's dragon.

02:12Oh, so it is, Edwin Jones.

02:15There's on you, she will now.

02:18Barada.

02:19Barada, I'm cold.

02:22I'm cold, Mr. Jones, I'm cold.

02:25Oh, dear, yes, he's supposed to be red hot.

02:27Your bake oven is like a refrigerator for him.

02:30Oh, I see.

02:31Oh, now what can I do?

02:33Oh, yes.

02:34The fire is still going.

02:36Mr. Dragon, would you care to work?

02:38Oh, yes, I would.

02:39I would.

02:40Oh, yes.

02:41Oh, yes.

02:43Oh, that's better.

02:47Oh.

02:48Oh, yes, that's better.

02:50That's all right for the moment, I dare say.

02:53But the point is, where's he going to go the rest of the time?

02:57Livestock must be conveyed in the proper container.

03:00Oh, yes, I see.

03:02That's a bit of a problem.

03:04We'll have to have a think about that.

03:07I, um...

03:09Uh...

03:10Oh, oh, yes.

03:11Yes, just the thing.

03:13Come, gentlemen.

03:14Eli the baker led them out the back to the yard behind his shop.

03:18There, under the shed roof, there was a...

03:21Well, what was it?

03:23It looks like a tricycle.

03:25But it's got a stove on the front.

03:27What's it say on there?

03:29Roast chestnuts, sixpence a bag.

03:31That's a bit dear for chestnuts.

03:33What's it for, Eli Bach?

03:34You selling chestnuts?

03:35No, not anymore.

03:37That was years ago.

03:38I used to at one time, but they, uh, didn't go very well around here.

03:42Not surprised at that price.

03:44Well, what do you use it for now?

03:46Oh, nothing.

03:47Till now.

03:48But I thought we could make up the fire again, and your dragon could...

03:51Why, yes.

03:52While you pedal it along.

03:53Of course.

03:54So that's what they did.

03:56The dragon climbed on the red-hot coal,

03:58and Jones the Steam peddled it away through Flanyog Town to the station.

04:02Selling chestnuts now, are you, Mr. Jones?

04:08No, Mrs. Williams.

04:10Dragons.

04:11Ooh.

04:12I bet they're expensive.

04:17There.

04:18In you go, Idris.

04:19Into Ivor's fire.

04:20Oh, Ivor, we had a terrible time rescuing poor Idris.

04:24He was in Eli's bake oven.

04:26Well, it's time you and Ivor were off to work.

04:28It's grumbly gas works today, don't forget.

04:31The railway isn't run simply for the convenience of your dragon.
