RB073 The End of the Rope and RB046 The Handcar Race

Our Ranger Bill
for Saturday, February 29, 2020 is
The End of the Rope and The Handcar Race

I have a rare situation where the weekday Ranger Bill stories and the weekend stories overlap. I just posted "The End of the Rope" on Tuesday on Facebook and it is playing again today. I posted "The End of the Rope" on Feb. 25th. Just scroll down a few days on the Ranger Bill Facebook page to catch that show.
For those of you who may follow the weekday shows, I have posted The Handcar Race for today on Facebook.

The End of the Rope
Two young boys, Bart Norton and Jeff Murdock, come to Knotty Pine for a vacation. The boys have strict orders to only do what Bill and Henry say is safe. The two get bored and decide to climb a dangerous cliff. No good can come from this decision.

The Handcar Race
The Fireball Express is streaking north toward the Knotty Pine region at 100 miles per hour with 400 souls on board. "Unc" McFadden is the rail dispatcher at Junction City. His job is making sure that the trains under his care get to their destinations safely. That includes the Fireball Express. Heavy rains followed by flash flooding threaten the rail trestles and bridges near Knotty Pine. To be safe, Unc sends a trestle tester engine to check the northern line especially the old trestle over 800-foot-deep Cougar Canyon. What will the tester crew find? This doesn't sound like any kind of a race to me. What does a handcar have to do with the whole problem? And what does this have to do with our rangers?
