Horse Power

Horse Power is a read and colour magazine story.

Plot
One day, Thomas is tasked with fetching two shire horses for Farmer Collett. The horses are loaded into a unique van at the harbour and Thomas puffs proudly away. Thomas soon grows a little boastful and teases the horses about how engines do the hard work these days instead of them.

Suddenly, just before the farm, Thomas bursts a valve. The horses give a cheeky neigh, making Thomas cross. Farmer Collett is telephoned and arrives on his tractor. The farmer hooks special towing equipment between the horses and Thomas and, with a mighty heave, the horses pull Thomas into a siding. Thomas feels embarrassed for what he said and remarks how he has never been pulled by his own passengers before!
