A boy – a “Trainspotter” – waits patiently for a train at a tunnel in the countryside. But instead of a train, a bull appears, trotting along the railway line, then 2 men on a tram. “How odd”, he thinks. Finally the train appears and the boy realises with shock that an accident is about to happen….

A boy – a “Trainspotter” – waits quietly and patiently for a train at a tunnel in the countryside. But instead of a train, a bull appears, trotting along the railway line.
“How odd”, he thinks.
Then 2 men on a manual tram appear out of the tunnel. They appear to be chasing the bull.
“Strange”, thinks the boy. He checks the train time table and his watch. The train should be here any time now, he thinks.
And then, on time, the train appears out the tunnel, heading with speed in the same direction as the bull and the 2 men on the manual tram.
With shock the boy realises that an accident is about to happen, and makes after the train… what ill he find!?
