Zephyrinus (leaning out of the Locomotive's Cab) tries his hand at driving a Steam Locomotive in Hungary. Meanwhile, Chauffeur Perkins (he wanted to come along on the holiday) takes boiling water from the Locomotive's Boiler in preparation for making Zephyrinus's Afternoon Cup of Tea. Two local Railway Workers decided to join in the photograph.

  1. Wonderful, Zephyrinus, and your two canines will love sailing the Danube with you and traversing the “Orient Express” with you and Captain Hastings, as no doubt you all will solve many Magyar mysteries! Bon voyage!

  2. Thank You, Dante Peregrinus. You are quite right, of course. The two canines love sailing and will also be quite happy on The Orient Express, running up and down the corridors.

    Perkins has ensured that a suitable Private Compartment has been reserved and Captain Hastings has already spoken to the Train's Chef to ensure proper English Breakfasts are served.

    All Magyar mysteries will, naturally, be recounted on this Blog.
