5. Granddad: “What’s happening, kids?”
Hank: “Grandpa, is that the railroad stuff Uncle Jip gave you? Can we see it?”
6 “Sure, Hank! He used signals like these when he worked as a flagman. This round thing is called a torpedo. And if you strike the end of this fusee, it shoots red or yellow sparks. My brother Jip could tell you all about railroading. Let’s invite him to visit the caboose out at the Tallahassee Museum with us!”
