Troublesome Twins

Troublesome Twins is a magazine story.

Plot
One day, Bill and Ben bring their usual trains of china clay to the harbour. Diesel is there, shunting. He warns the twins to stay out of his way or he will bump them. The twins think Diesel is bad tempered and needs to be taught a lesson, so they make a plan.

Bill goes off to find Diesel and tells him that he can bump him if he can catch him. Diesel is sure he can do so and hurries after Bill, who ends up hiding behind some trucks. Ben, pretending to be Bill, calls out from elsewhere and Diesel begins chasing again. When Ben backs into a siding, Bill emerges from his hiding place and this continues until Diesel grows tired.

Bill and Ben are having great fun until Bill races too fast into a siding and bumps into the buffers. He is also still coupled to his china clay trucks which end up bouncing off the rails and spilling their loads. The Fat Controller is contacted and scolds both Diesel for threatening the twins and Bill and Ben for playing tricks.
