About the book

In Four Little Engines, brave Rheneas was put on a truck to be mended. He has been away for a long tie, but now is coming home, and all the Little Engines will be together at last.

Meanwhile Peter Sam gets a new Special Funnel, Sir Handel has a Clash with a large and aggressive Steam-roller, and there is no lack of adventure on the Thin Controller's line!
