Duncan Has a Spill

Duncan Has a Spill is a magazine story.

Plot
Duncan, the little narrow gauge engine, means well but often rides roughly. Duke warns Duncan that he may come off the rails if he carries on. Peter Sam and Sir Handel then try telling Duncan the story of Smudger who kept coming off the rails and was turned into a generator. Duncan ignores the advice and one day the points rod that connects the singnalbox to the points outside the engine shed breaks. Duncan is not paying attention and he comes right off the rails.
