RB124 Soup Truck

 Our RANGER BILL tale for this Tuesday, 1/6/26, is filled with great danger and even greater bravery:

RB124 Soup Truck

A truck carrying nitroglycerin blows up just outside the town of Landslide. The mayor closes Landslide to all dangerous truck traffic. Closing Landslide will put the explosives company out of business and hurt many other businesses. Bill must find a way to prove to the mayor that even nitro can be taken safely through Landslide.
