"Yes, I guess so," answered Mrs. Brown.
"I've got your train in running order," said Mr. Brown. "You can play with it outside, near the campfire. But at night we'll have to take it into the tent, for there might be rain."
Mr. Brown soon showed Bunny how to start and stop the electric train by turning a switch. The train was pulled by a little locomotive made of steel and tin. Inside was a tiny electric motor, which was worked by a current from the dry battery cells, such as make your door bell ring, except that they were stronger.
"All aboard for the city, on track five!" cried Bunny, as he had heard the starter in the railroad station cry.
"Wait a minute! Wait a minute!" cried Sue. "I want to get on the train with my Teddy bear that makes her eyes all light."
"Make-believe, you mean; don't you?" asked Bunny.
"Of course make-believe," answered Sue. "I couldn't sit on your little cars.
"Maybe the Teddy bear could," she added.
"Oh, let's try," said Bunny. "Then we could give him a truly, really ride."
