Plot[]
Shai-Shay and Skunky are tasked to deliver a large load of wood needed to restorate some buildings on a far railway, and even replace the railway ties in the track. This new arrangement lead several railway enthusiasts to photograph or video the trains on their job. But everytime they pass one sharp curve, a Pegasus Mare named Kathatine, is filming this with a digital video camera but a tad too close to the line, which worries Shai.
Then later, Kathatine meets up with him and his crew then she replays a video that she can't remember filming, which shows several log cars come rolling down a hill before it reaches a curve and then stops, but other things that make it unusual is the fact there is a broken fence, burnt grass, and a bare tree. As Shai-Shay warns Kathatine that she can't stand to close to the line like she is, but his crew brush it off, then a few days later, Skunky has an accident at the curve which not only break a fence, but sparks from his funnel sets some of the grass ablaze. Which leaves Shai-Shay alone to run the load but on the last day as he goes over the hill, the log trucks play tricks at him, which then causes a coupling to snap, sending half the train hurtling back down the hill, at the curve where the mare stood. But when help arrives, only Kathatine's camera and neck scarf is found.
Then later the police show the last recording of the camera which shows the same exact video that Kathatine shown before. As Judy predicts that the mare witnessed her own death, which of course causes some confusion but none the less, there is nothing else to prove otherwise. And so then Shai-Shay remains quiet for the next few days while his crew were suspended for 4 months for encouraging the trespassing. While the log trucks vow never to cause trouble again, or else they could cause serious hurt.
