Three were great, strong freight engines. There were fast passenger engines. There were long, thin, streamlined engines. There were funny, fat little engines. And the engines in the roundhouse were puffing out white steam and black smoke, and their bells were ringing." ---- from Chapter 1: The Engine Learns to Puff Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
