Cheer-up, Charlie

Cheer up, Charlie is the 4th episode of Series 3 of Miniature Railway Adventures. It was first written in 2011 by Michael White.

Plot
Casey catches up with Charlie before he left the railway, stating that the accident he had was not his fault. Charlie wasn't sure how this was true, but Casey informed him of a way that would prove it. Meanwhile, Jane is letting her anger out on Cars for his behaviour in front of Charlie. Cars stated that he was only following the rules of the railway's conduct and that there was nothing he can do about it. Jane brings up the question on the reason for the staff shortage was due to these rules being so strict. She suggests holding a deputation and to bring the head of the railway upfront to tell them that these rules must change. Cars looks up the note about deputations in the book he was issued with, only to find it's page has been torn out. The same was said for the spare copies in the office. With that noted the deputation gets formed. Everyone waits for the head of the railway to arrive and start the meeting.

Audiobook
An Audiobook adaption was made of this story which was released in January 2019. Michael White wasn't available to narrate that story so Youtuber Tenshine1 Productions stepped in to cover.
