The story

Believing it is coasting, yardmaster Connie Hooper orders the two hostlers to pursue and board the train and sends lead welder Ned Oldham ahead in his truck to switch it off the main line.

Instead, veteran engineer Judd Stewart is sent with another locomotive to slow Triple 7 enough to allow AWVR employee and U.S.

Frank notices an open coupler on Triple 7's rear car and proposes coupling 1206 to it, then using their brakes to slow it before it reaches the Stanton Curve.
