Oliver, the Great Western Engine, returns from the works after an earlier incident with some freight cars that pushed him into a turntable well. Now, Oliver's as good as new but he is worried about the cars, thinking that he would rather not use them. The cars, prompted by their ringleader, S.C. Ruffey, sing a rude song to spite Oliver. Thomas, Duck and Percy are shocked and angrily order them to be quiet, but they cannot be everywhere at once and the freight cars just continue to sing where they are not at.
At last, the tank engines give up and apologize to Oliver, who reassures them that the turntable well incident is his fault. Toad, Oliver's brake van, fears that the matter may escalate and decides to come up with a plan. The next day, Toad pitches his idea to Duck and Oliver and while Oliver agrees with Toad's idea, Duck is not so sure about how effective it will be but ultimately agrees in the end. Following Toad's advice, Oliver marshals the worst cars two by two so he can handle S.C. Ruffey last. Oliver soon shunts S.C. Ruffey at the head of his train and prepares to pull them, but S.C. Ruffey whispers to the cars to hold back and they do. Oliver, however, is determined and uses all of his strength to pull against the cars. Oliver ends up pulling so hard that S.C. Ruffey subsequently breaks apart, much to the horror of the other cars and to the delight of Duck and Toad.
Sir Topham Hatt arrives and scrutinizes the remains of the rusty car. He attributes it to S.C. Ruffey's poor build due to material fatigue and worn out parts and decides to have him put back together. Nowadays, Oliver only takes freight trains when the other engines are busy, but the cars become fearful of Oliver and whisper to each other not to anger him, fearing he will pull them apart like he did with S.C. Ruffey. Oliver feels proud, knowing that he now has endless, fear-induced respect from the cars and S.C. Ruffey, who is now rebuilt, has learned his lesson and wisely remains silent.
