#Ghost train thomas photosheet driver#
"Peeeeep! peeeeeeeeeeeep! pip! pip! Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep!" he shrieked.Īs it had been arranged, Toby's Driver and Fireman quickly shut the doors. Percy approached the Shed quietly and glided through it. "Pooh! Who cares? Don't be frightened, Toby. It s-said it w-was c-coming here t-to w - warm us." "They've cleared the line for you," Toby went on, "but there's something worse - " Thomas was being "oiled up" for his evening train, when Toby hurried in saying, "Percy's had an accident." On their way they met Toby, who promised to help. That'll teach him to say I'm a silly little engine!" "Do let's pretend I'm a ghost, and scare Thomas. "I'll see to it," said the Signalman, "but you'd better clean Percy, or people will think he's a ghost!" "What have you done to Percy? He's white all over!" They found no one at the crossing, so they went on to the nearest signal box.
Percy broke the cart to smithereens, and lime flew everywhere. He detached Terence from the cart, and rode back to the farm for help. The cart's tail still fouled the railway. Terence tried hard, but couldn't move it. He drove in a hurry with Terence, bumped over the crossing, and sank his cart's front wheels in mud at the field gate. Sam had forgotten that Mr Crowe wanted a load of lime take to Forty-acre field. "Crowe's Farm Crossing," he chuntered happily. He always knew just where he was, even in the dark.
He coasted along without effort, the rails humming cheerfully under his wheels, and signal lights changing to green at his approach. That evening he came back "light engine" from the harbour. Percy was disappointed, but he was too busy all day with his stone trucks to think about ghosts. It was a pretend ghost story on television." "Thomas didn't believe in your ghost," said Percy, next morning.
Oooh! It makes my wheels wobble to think of it!" "He didn't say, but it must have been on our line. And every year on the date of the accident it runs again, as a warning to others, plunging into the gap, shrieking like a lost soul." Fortunately I was one of them.(A Percy covered in banners crosses the Viaduct) Only the attentive figured it out and were able to rush over from Roma Termini to Roma Tiburtina to catch the train. Although I have been in a situation where in Rome they changed the station, yes the station, not just the platform, of a Eurocity at the last moment, within an hour of departure. The operations folks getting their wish come true! Just run the railroad with no pesky passengers to worry about :lol:ĭon't we have dozens of ushers falling over each other at Penn Station to make sure that passengers get on the right train? Were they all out to lunch or something like that?Īnd what exactly did the Conductors think? The passengers have gone on strike? Afterall they did have the passenger rosters with them, didn't they? I wonder if Amtrak management will hold anyone responsible for this silliness, or just find some reason to excuse all, level things as they are and go merrily on with life.įrankly, I have never heard of an airline pull this sort of a stunt, just forgetting to board passengers, even in Africa.
