Eddie
Willers
did
not
know
what
happened
next
;
he
had
fallen
back
against
the
side
of
the
engineer
s
chair
,
staring
at
the
open
door
of
the
motor
unit
;
he
did
not
know
how
long
he
stayed
there
,
but
when
,
at
last
,
he
turned
his
head
,
he
saw
that
he
was
alone
.
The
engineer
and
the
fireman
had
left
the
cab
.
There
was
a
scramble
of
voices
outside
,
screams
,
sobs
,
shouted
questions
and
the
sound
of
the
side
-
show
barker
s
laughter
.
Eddie
pulled
himself
to
the
window
of
the
cab
:
the
Comet
s
passengers
and
crew
were
crowding
around
the
leader
of
the
caravan
and
his
semi
-
ragged
companions
;
he
was
waving
his
loose
arms
in
gestures
of
command
.
Some
of
the
better
-
dressed
ladies
from
the
Comet
whose
husbands
had
apparently
been
first
to
make
a
deal
were
climbing
aboard
the
covered
wagons
,
sobbing
and
clutching
their
delicate
makeup
cases
.
"
Step
right
up
,
folks
,
step
right
up
!
"
the
barker
was
yelling
cheerfully
.
"
We
ll
make
room
for
everybody
!
A
bit
crowded
,
but
moving
better
than
being
left
here
for
coyote
fodder
!
The
day
of
the
iron
horse
is
past
!
All
we
got
is
plain
,
old
-
fashioned
horse
!
Slow
,
but
sure
!

Eddie
Willers
climbed
halfway
down
the
ladder
on
the
side
of
the
engine
,
to
see
the
crowd
and
to
be
heard
.
He
waved
one
arm
,
hanging
onto
the
rungs
with
the
other
.
"
You
re
not
going
,
are
you
?
"
he
cried
to
his
passengers
.
"
You
re
not
abandoning
the
Comet
?
"
They
drew
a
little
away
from
him
,
as
if
they
did
not
want
to
look
at
him
or
answer
.
They
did
not
want
to
hear
questions
their
minds
were
incapable
of
weighing
.
He
saw
the
blind
faces
of
panic
.
"
What
s
the
matter
with
the
grease
-
monkey
?
"
asked
the
barker
,
pointing
at
Eddie
.
