James with Team Colors is from the "Thomas and the Colours" story. James loves to take the Sodor School Team to its big soccer match and wear the team's special ribbons and flags. A jealous Thomas almost ruins the big day, but he and the school children work together to make sure James looks better than ever!

Busy as a Bee James is from "The Green Controller" story. Sir Topham Hatt is sick and makes Percy the controller for a day. When Percy tells James to be a "busy bee," James mistakenly gets a new coat of yellow-and-black paint. When a signalman laughs at him, James feels less than splendid.
