Synopsis
Dr. Xargle is trying to demonstrate Earthtransport and steam locomotion with the help of his invention, "Xargleson's Rocket." The Queegles learn about clip-clops, which are the oldest form of transport, and they look forward to their field trip on Planet Earth to a transport museum. Unfortunately, they have to make an emergency landing at a funfair instead. Matron scares the children in the ghost train with her disguise, and the ghouls have a big problem trying to wake Tardy. Rebel thinks that the fortune teller's crystal ball is an excellent specimen to take back on the spaceship- with disastrous results for Nigel Spume.
