Short Story #4: The New Piece

Engineer Willie is trying out the newest piece of equipment on the Danville County Railroad Layout, The Motor Car! It has a headlight on both sides as well as a Grab-N-Hook Bar & a lever to go forward and reverse. Now he's trying it out and it's working.


Willie: Hey Mark it's working.
Mark: The Motor Car?
Willie: Yeah!
Mark: Well that's great.
Willie: I want to get it running as soon as possible
Mark: For sure, i really like it.
Willie: Hey we can give rides to visitors, don't you think?
Mark: That's a great idea.
Willie: I guess it was a good build after all
Mark: Heck Yeah

It was a good build for the DVCRR. And since it's new it will garner a lot of attention.
