OverviewIt was almost dark and Guillermo, the conductor, was nervous. He knew that other trains had been stopped by bandits in the same area, and the passengers and valuable cargo had been robbed. He also knew that in one of those robberies the conductor had been thrown off the train. Nobody was safe! Guillermo lived with his wife and José, their young son, in a small town that was one of the train stops on this route. On other trips, his family would wait for the train and wave at Guillermo, but today something felt different. The train was packed with passengers and valuable cargo and traveling at normal speed, but suddenly there was an unexpected incident.

Al acercarse al pueblo, Guillermo vio que su hijo le hacía señales con una linterna encendida. En cuanto se acercó lo suficiente pudo oír que José le decía: ""Puente ardiendo."" El puente estaba ardiendo a a punto de derrumbarse sobre el río. Guillermo aumentó la velocidad del tren al máximo para cruzar al otro lado.
