Chuffa train, Chuffa train, chuffin down the track again
Chuffa train, Chuffa train, chuffin down the track
Iron wheels on rails of steel, clickety clack, clickety clack 
Chuffa train, Chuffa train, bicycles right at the back

Chuffa train, Chuffa train, glad you’re on the track again
Chuffa train, Chuffa train, glad to hear you’re back 
Buffet car for drink or snack, clickety clack, clickety clack
Chuffa train, Chuffa train, engine driver sooty black

Chuffa train, Chuffa train let your whistle blow again
Chuffa train, Chuffa train mind the doors and mind the gap
Hissing steam, depart the station, clickety clack, clickety clack
Chuffa train, Chuffa train, locomotin’ there and back

Thanks, Jan. one of ‘not sure about this one’ poems that I wasn’t even sure was complete. But as I saw fit not to bin it, I guess I thought it had something about it. Glad you enjoyed. Terry
