Quotes 

• Narrator : One day, Percy stopped at the airfield.

  Percy : Hello. Who are you?

  Harold : I'm Harold. Who are you?

  Percy : I'm Percy. What whirly great arms you've got.

  Harold : They're nice arms. I can hover like a bird. Don't you wish you could hover?

  Percy : Certainly not! I like my rails, thank you.

  Harold : I think railways are slow. They're not much use and quite out of date.

  Narrator : Harold whirled his arms and buzzed away.

• [last lines] 

  Percy's Fireman : [after Percy beats Harold in a race]  Listen, boys. Here's a song for Percy.

  Percy's Fireman : [singing]  Said Harold the Helicopter to our Percy, "You are slow! / Your railway is out of date and not much use you know!" / But Percy with his stone trucks did the trip in record time, / And we beat the helicopter on our old branch line!

  Narrator : Percy loved it.

  Percy : Oh, thank you.

  Narrator : He liked the last line best of all and was a very happy engine.
