Gordon was doing well with driving the train.
Franklin: We'll be going up a hill soon.
Gordon: Oh please. This engine is powerful, it should get the entire train up by itself.
Franklin: But it doesn't. We tried having an empty freight like ours go up that hill once, but it still needed help. Coal is a very heavy thing to pull.
Gordon: I know. You should see the trains we have to deal with, some of them are so heavy, that we need two challengers to pull them.
Franklin: Double heading of very large locomotives just seems so interesting.
Gordon: I know. *Sees hill* Is this the hill you were talking about?
Franklin: Yeah.
Gordon: So we just stop, and let another engine get on the back to push?
Franklin: Yeah.
Gordon: Well, not this time. *Driving faster*
Franklin: Gordon? What are you doing?!
Gordon: Creating history. *Going up hill*
Frankin: I can't believe this.
Gordon: Believe it. I am getting this train up the hill without another engine pushing from behind. *Gets to top of hill* And no wheel slip too.
Franklin: That was impressive. For a pony that doesn't like steam trains, you know a lot about them.
Gordon: I have to, otherwise I wouldn't be able to drive one.
Franklin: You know, Stephenson won't let you leave until you lose your dislike for steam trains.
Gordon: Well, I have an idea. Get somepony to take my place over here.
Franklin: *Sees station* I see a good spot.
Gordon: Good. *stops train*
Worker: What's going on?
Gordon: You're taking my spot. Get in there *Jumps out of engine*
Worker: Alright. *Gets in engine*
Gordon: *Goes to phone*
Worker: *Drives away*
Gordon: *Calling Boss Stephenson*
Boss Stephenson: *Hears phone ringing* Hello?
Gordon: It's Gordon. I learned my lesson, and I'm leaving your railroad.
Boss Stephenson: Where are you calling from?
Gordon: I'm in Roanoke right now.
Boss Stephenson: You finish your job, and I'll let you go back to Cheyenne.
Gordon: Yeah.. About that, the train is gone.
Boss Stephenson: What are you talking about?
Gordon: Somepony else took my place, and drove the train away.
Boss Stephenson: You should have made that call after you finished your job.
Gordon: I'm sorry, you never told me that.
Boss Stephenson: I knew you were fat, but I didn't know you were dumb.
Gordon: Judging me again, that's really great.
Boss Stephenson: Stay there, I'm coming to get you. *Hangs up*
Gordon: I can't let him get me. I have to get out of here somehow.
A passenger train arrives.
Conductor: All aboard for Norfoal!
Ponies: *Getting on train*
Gordon: Ah, what the heck? *Gets on train*
Meanwhile in Norfoal
Boss Stephenson: How do I get to Roanoke's train station from here?
Worker: You just stay on the main highway, and turn on exit 6.
Boss Stephenson: Thank you. *Flying above highway*
Worker: He just doesn't like to drive.
Back at Roanoke
Gordon: *Sitting in passenger car*
Conductor: All aboard!
Engineer: *Blows whistle twice*
Signal Pony: *Turns signal from red to green*
Engineer: *Drives train*
Gordon: *Sitting comfortably in chair*
Conductor: Ticket?
Passenger pony: *Gives Conductor ticket*
Conductor: *Checks ticket* Here you go. *returns ticket*
Passenger pony: Thank you.
Gordon: Oh no, I didn't buy a ticket.
Boss Stephenson: *Sees Gordon in train, then flies after it*
Conductor: Ticket please?
Gordon: *Carrying two hundred dollars* How about this instead?
Conductor: *Takes money, then grabs Gordon*
Gordon: What are you doing?
Conductor: No ticket, no ride. *Takes Gordon towards door*
Boss Stephenson: *Flying by door*
Gordon: You can't do this.
Conductor: Whatever you say. *Opens door, and kicks Gordon off train*
Boss Stephenson: *Sees Gordon on ground* Well, well well. You thought you could trick me, but it didn't work.
Gordon: (Wait a minute. Teleportation) Yep. You really outsmart me.
Boss Stephenson: Now you're going to do another job for me.
Gordon: *Charging horn*
Boss Stephenson: *Stands back* What, you gonna shoot me?
Gordon: *Teleports to Cheyenne*
Boss Stephenson: Great. He's gone.
In Cheyenne
Jeff: Oh, hello Gordon. Have you had a good time on the N&W?
Gordon: *Being sarcastic* Oh yeah, a swell time. One day, we have to go there together.
Jeff: *Walks away*
Pete: Well, I'm glad to see you're back. Boss Stephenson didn't tell me about you returning.
Gordon: He forgot.
Pete: Really?
Gordon: Yes, he really forgot!
Pete: Okay. I believe you.
Gordon: Good.
Pete: Oh, and one more thing, make sure you call me before leaving without permission.
