Gears and steam...

Brass Gears Turning...
Fulfilling Thier One Duty...
Inevitable...

Boiler starts growling...
Pressure grows inside the pipes...
Pistons come to life..

Oil and coal lay...
Waiting for the engineer...
To give a purpose..

Wheels come to life...
Wooden sleapers creak and bow...
A trail of black smoke...

Suddenly wheels slow...
Traction lost and pressure too...
Restoke the Boiler!..

Fire roar and coal spit...
Cabin heated workman sweat...
Speed regained, Move on...

Platform approaches...
Whistle blown and brakes applied...
Mighty fire burns out...
