*BreakTheCutie: It's toned down from the book version, but at the start of the episode, Edward is still very sad when Gordon tells him that "the driver won't choose [him] again." [[HealTheCutie Thankfully, this doesn't last long]], as the driver and fireman ''do'' take Edward out for a run.

* AdaptedOut: In the novel version of "Edward's Day Out", which forms the first half of this episode, two big blue engines numbered 87546 and 98642 shared the sheds with Edward and Gordon (and presumably Henry and James as well). In this adaptation, they are neither seen nor mentioned, and Thomas takes their place, leading to the AdaptationInducedPlothole above.

'''U.S. Title''': Edward Helps Out
'''Air date''': October 9th, 1984
'''Adapted from''': ''[[Recap/TheRailwaySeriesB1TheThreeRailwayEngines The Three Railway Engines]]'', "Edward's Day Out" and "Edward and Gordon"
Edward is an old, blue engine and is feeling sad, as he hasn't been out in a long time. The other engines that lived in Tidmouth Sheds with Edward told him the driver won't choose him, making Edward even more depressed. One morning, the driver and fireman saw that he was upset, and chose him over the other engines. Edward had a wonderful day pulling coaches. The coaches were very impressed with Edward, as was his crew. He went back to the sheds that evening, and fell fast asleep.
Next morning, Gordon was bragging to Edward. He told the old engine to watch him rush by with the express that afternoon. Edward ignored him and went to shunt trucks in the yard. Edward loved shunting; he would biff the trucks, and they would scream in horror.
Edward worked very hard all day. That afternoon, he went for a rest on a siding. Presently, he heard Gordon's whistle. But instead of coaches, the express engine was pulling a line of dirty trucks. Gordon moaned as he slowly pulled his goods train. He soon began to climb a hill, and stopped halfway up. Edward was soon called to be Gordon's banker. The big blue engine didn't think that little old Edward could do it, but he pushed all the same. Up the hill went the train all the while Gordon kept saying, "I can't do it, I can't do it." But to Gordon's surprise, they did make it to the top. Gordon thundered away, cheering for himself, leaving Edward in the dust without even saying thank you to him. Edward slowly ran into a siding at Maron station, where his driver and fireman promises to give him a new coat of paint.
!!Tropes featured in the episode:
* AdaptationInducedPlothole: The line from the original story from Literature/TheRailwaySeries story that all of the other engines are bigger than Edward is kept, yet Thomas (who isn't in the original story) is smaller.
* AdaptedOut: In the novel version of "Edward's Day Out", which forms the first half of this episode, two big blue engines numbered 87546 and 98642 shared the sheds with Edward and Gordon (and presumably Henry and James as well). In this adaptation, they are neither seen nor mentioned, and Thomas takes their place, leading to the AdaptationInducedPlothole above.
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Edward was teased by the other engines for being old and no longer useful to the railway. He soon proves them wrong, however.
* BerserkButton: Gordon was very angry when he was ordered to pull trucks.
-->'''Gordon:''' A goods train! A goods train! A goods train! A goods train! The shame of it! The shame of it! Oh, the shame of it!
* BreakTheHaughty: Happens to Gordon as he is pulling trucks.
* ComedicSociopathy: Edward delights in scaring the trucks by bumping them hard into each other.
* CompressedAdaptation: The episode retells the events of both the book's story of the same name and [[Recap/TheRailwaySeriesB1TheThreeRailwayEngines "Edward's Day Out"]] (the very first story from ''Literature/TheRailwaySeries''). The dilemma of the latter story (the guard being late at the station) is omitted.
* CoolOldGuy: Edward.
* IfYouWontIWill: Edward and Gordon have this exchange while struggling up the hill:
-->'''Gordon:''' I can't do it! I can't do it! I can't do it!\\
'''Edward:''' I will do it! I will do it! I will do it!
* {{Jerkass}}: Gordon.
* KickTheSonOfABitch: The trucks who held back Gordon up the hill.
* LaserGuidedKarma: Gordon having to pull dirty trucks was as a result of being the main one who insulted Edward in the beginning of the episode.
* LuminescentBlush: Gordon's angry face is painted with a blush throughout the second half of the episode after being forced to pull trucks.
* NiceGuy: Edward.
* OnceDoneNeverForgotten: Gordon gets stuck pulling trucks on a steep hill. Edward comes to help him up. Ever since then, the hill has been known by most characters as "Gordon's Hill". Other engines would later have trouble on the same hill but since Gordon was the first, it's officially named after him.
* OutOfCharacterMoment: Thomas, who even in his earlier ruder form was depicting having a lot of respect for Edward, is shown teasing him and showing resentment towards him being let out. It should be noted, however, that this only happened in the TV version, and in Rev. W. Awdry's original story, Thomas was absent.
* UngratefulBastard: Gordon had forgotten to thank Edward for helping him up the hill.
