Old Bernard Manning-Wardle the engine driver was having a terrible day.First, his little green locomotive sneezed coal dust all over Bob Geeza Cat. Then the milk tank wagon started making mysterious spirit/ghost like noises every time the train stopped. Nobody could explain it.“Haunted tank wagon,” whispered the shunter nervously.But when they finally opened the hatch, they discovered that it had been filled full of moonshine instead of milk.Within minutes, the locomotive was puffing along twice as fast, the driver was singing sea shanties, and three chickens had somehow boarded the parcels van for the trip back to Whimsy Pit.To this day, locals still talk about the only train in history that ran late because the driver stopped to hug a scarecrow.
