“Look!” says Peter pointing at the trees on the opposite side of the line. “They’re moving!” It’s true! The trees are moving slowly down the hill on a big piece of rock. The next moment there’s a loud CRASH as the rock and the trees fall on the line below in a big cloud of dust.

“We must make some flags,” says Peter taking the girls’ petticoats. “Go and find six long sticks!” Peter tears the petticoats into six pieces and ties them to the sticks. They start waving their flags and shouting, but the train doesn’t slow down.
“It’s no good!” shouts Bobbie. “They can’t see us!” She runs to the pile, takes one of the flags and stands on the line in front of the train.“Bobbie!” shouts Peter. “LEAVE THE LINE!”
But Bobbie stays on the line and waves her two flags very hard at the train. The big black engine gets nearer and nearer to Bobbie. Her arms are tired, but she doesn’t stop waving her flags. “STOP! STOP!” she shouts.

There isn’t time,” he says. “We must do something to stop it. What a pity! We haven’t got anything red!” “But we have!” says Bobbie, “Phyllis and I are wearing our red petticoats (衬裙) today!” They quickly take them off and then they all run down the hill.
“We must make some flags,” says Peter taking the girls’ petticoats. “Go and find six long sticks!” Peter tears the petticoats into six pieces and ties them to the sticks. They start waving their flags and shouting, but the train doesn’t slow down.
“It’s no good!” shouts Bobbie. “They can’t see us!” She runs to the pile, takes one of the flags and stands on the line in front of the train.“Bobbie!” shouts Peter. “LEAVE THE LINE!”
But Bobbie stays on the line and waves her two flags very hard at the train. The big black engine gets nearer and nearer to Bobbie. Her arms are tired, but she doesn’t stop waving her flags. “STOP! STOP!” she shouts.
Nobody can hear her because the noise of the train is too loud. But then the engine finally starts to slow down. It stops in front of Bobbie and the engine driver gets off.
