The pair takes an assortment of "junior engineers? to the Tweetsie for a steam train ride. But before they get under way and after they reach their destination, crewmembers take the children and viewers inside the train and explain what the various levers in the cab do, the fireman?s responsibilities, the conductor?s job, and the inner workings of the steam engine itself.
