The Polar Express2004
Hobo:
That skirt you're chasing must have moved on ahead. We gotta hightail it to the hog, pronto!
Hero Boy:
To the hog?
Hobo:
The engine. The engine, you tenderfoot. We gotta make the engine before we hit Flat-Top Tunnel.
Hero Boy:
Why? How come?
Hobo:
[sighs] So many questions. There's but one inch of clearance between the roof of this rattler and the roof of Flat-Top Tunnel. Savvy? It's just a run up to the hump, kid! This'll be interesting! [Hobo slides backward and uses his muck stick on the handle but Hero Boy slips off him] Get back on, kid! Hurry! Grab my muck stick! [Hero Boy does so and Hobo swings him back on the roof and the sled down to the engine] There's only one trick to this, kid! When I say "jump"... [Flat-Top Tunnel's teeth fly out] you JUMP!!! [Hero Boy jumps on to the tender and slides down the coal and finds Hero Girl in charge of the train]
Hero Boy:
[To Hero Girl] You! I thought you got thrown off and, you're driving the train?!
Hero Girl:
They put me in charge. The engineer had to check the light.
Steamer:
[holding a light bulb for Smokey to install on the train] Here's the light! Careful. All right, now!
