Pandemonium ensues at Hatley when a turkey belonging to the signalman, Harry Lambert, is seen running up the line.

Mr Parkin plans to make Hatley Station more sophisticated by setting up a new speaker system, over which the station announcements will be made. Mrs Schumann, who is in charge of the booking office, is chosen to make the announcements, but will her nerves get the better of her?
