John had been out on the town and missed the last
train to Munruben. In desperation he asked the
Stationmaster if there was any solution.
The Stationmaster asked, "Can you run fast?" and
John replied, "Yes, I can try".
The Stationmaster said, "Another train will stop here
shortly. It does not stop at Munruben though. Get on it and when you get to Munruben
get your legs into gear and jump off. Keep up your
momentum so that you dont fall over".
John boarded the next train and got ready for the
Munruben station. As the train was passing the
platform he jumped off and kept his balance. His
poor old legs were working overtime.
Just as the rear of the train caught up to him a
big brawny arm reached out and snatched him up.
John found himself in the guard's van with the
guard saying, "Bet you thought you missed it eh".
