Trains have a reputation for being on time, and that has been the case for well over a century. They will often do what is necessary to ensure that they run on time, because if they are running behind, problems are likely to occur. On this particular morning, however, the train conductor decided to begin his shift by walking the engines, even though it was below freezing outside.
As he was walking between the two engines, he heard what he called “The saddest cat sound that I’ve ever heard” and it made him do a double take. He took a look underneath the engine using a light and he discovered a tiny cat that was on top of the cold steel. The cat was literally covered with ice and snow and was almost frozen.
The conductor called to the cat and he managed to muster up the strength to jump down into his arms. He took him back to the train, clean him as good as he could and they then became a three-man crew. The cat also found the forever home that he needed from this kind man.
