Peter's Railway Rain, Steam and Speed by Christopher G C Vine
A railway adventure on the farm. The children are riding on the little railway when they get caught in a rainstorm. While drying by the fire, Grandpa tells them two stories from the old days on the railways - both stories are true. Drive Bill Hoole offers two girls a ride in the cab of his steam locomotive: They have been caught in a storm and the heat of the cab will dry them out. They end up stealing the train!
Since a very small boy, Chris has always loved everything mechanical, especially steam engines. The first workshop was in his bedroom where he made an electric go-kart aged 8, followed by a mini-bike powered by the engine from a petrol lawn mower.He spent many holidays on a friend's farm where there was a miniature railway across a field and so started a love of making model steam locomotives. The latest is Bongo, 8 feet long and the inspiration for Fiery Fox in the books.Chris wanted to share his love and knowledge of railways and engineering: Peter's Railway is the result.
