Farmer Bell makes his regular delivery of produce to the Chigley biscuit factory, and gets a tour of the factory from Mr Cresswell. They notice that a box of biscuits meant for delivery has been overlooked. As Trumpton is very congested at this time of day it is too late to take it by road to Wintelbury station, in time for the 5.23 train to London. Farmer Bell comes to the rescue by taking the box to the pottery where it is picked up by Lord Belborough in Bessie and taken to Treddles Wharf. Here it is transferred to Chippy Minton's truck which he drives off to Wintelbury. Mr Swallow then points out that as the timetable has recently been changed, the train doesn't leave until 5.43, and so they would have made it by road anyway !
