Résumé

A train driver and his stoker take us on the nice to marseilles run. First we watch their preparations before leaving. Next, we see how they deal with various problems which occur along the way. Their journey back to nice is a challenge, since they take over from a team which has arrived late in marseilles. If our crew can make up the lost time they will earn a bonus. It’s a struggle, but they finally reach nice on schedule.
