Description

A crazy mistake leads to disaster.  One of Grandpa’s amazing-but-true stories.

Introduction page from the book:

Peter and his Grandpa have built an amazing miniature steam railway between their houses; Woodland Cottage and Crossacres Farm. The line even runs to Yockletts Village where Peter goes to school.

The locomotive, Fiery Fox, is a wonderful machine. Bright green and very powerful, it can pull heavy trains along the line at high speed. They have even banked up the track on the bends so the trains can run really fast.

After a mishap while doing some track maintenance, Grandpa remembers one of his amazing-but-true stories from an old railway.
Age range 6 to 12 years.
Paperback, 32 pages with 12 watercolour pictures.
