Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Greatheart, Vol. 1 of 3 The train was ten minutes late. The porters kept looking Plymouth way, and Truro way, but it did not seem to hurry the train the least. As for the station-master, he had grown a little anxious, and was bullying the telegraph boy, in order to conceal his anxiety; but that did not do much good either. An expectant Cornish town was represented simply by two fat hotel "touts" and one lean ´bus conductor, who were watching outside, with chins uncomfortably spiked on the wooden paling of the station, for visitors. Round at last, however, went the scarlet target signal, and in roared and raced the dilatory and fussy train. A great puff of exulting white vapour burst from the engine funnel - the myriad wheels slackened - the buffers beat together and rebounded - the stoker lifted up his brass-bound cap, wiped his grimy brow, and nodded to a friendly porter - a dozen door handles turned simultaneously, and out leaped the irrestrainable passengers.
