@ An Adventure Begins! Sganeralle and Scaredy Cat have been given a free map to help them enjoy their Winter Tour! Before unfolding it, they read the cover: Full Steam Ahead Today's trip starts with the pets being picked up by motor vehicles. They try to catch sight of signposts to give a clue to their destination! Arriving at the train station, they climb aboard the Winter Express steam engine for a tour through a winter wonderland! The train stops for them to stretch paws, flippers and wings exploring a path through a snowy forest and on the way back they encounter a little creature clad in red and white trying out his skis! Back on board the journey through winter vistas continues until sunset. The train puffs its way across a stunning viaduct and on into the mist, before pulling up at the station where it is just a short distance to that night's house. Here the pets can explore the spacious interior including the library and wind down from their enjoyable trip out with hot chocolate topped with whipped cream and cinnamon. An Adventure Begins!

Episode 2/27
@ Arrow Pointing “You've got to admit, it takes real skills to drive a steam locomotive, Sganeralle,” said Pika. "It could take years to learn the various jobs." "Well, yes, Pika, I don't doubt that," said Sganeralle considering the matter. “But, you know, things have moved on, haven't they?" Arrow Pointing As our friends settle in on the train, they notice the directional sign outside their windows. They smile at one another as they know this arrow points towards a fun adventure!
While wandering in Winter, you met Pika.
Sganeralle shook paws with Pika the Vanilla Milky Moo Cow. They both received one silver mole!
@ And They're Off! "Ooh, look what it says in my book, Sganeralle! 'Today’s electric commuter trains possess all the character and élan of an Argos microwave oven. They transport bodies well enough, but leave spirits unmoved. Have we lost something?' I think that just about sums it up!" And They're Off! With the long, loud sound of the train's whistle, the train lurches forward with a jolt and a series of chugs increasing rapidly while steam pours over the top and down the sides of each passenger car! Our friends settle into their seats with wide smiles!
While wandering in Winter, you met Choose a name.
Sganeralle shook paws with Choose a name the Panda Cub. They both received one silver mole!
@ Snowy Landscape “If there's time at the end when we get back to our accommodation, I might do some initial sketches for a watercolour painting," Sabrina said, offering Sganeralle a toffee from the bag and then unwrapping one for herself. “That sounds like a good plan, Sabrina!" said Sganeralle. Snowy Landscape They don't stay fully in their seats for long as the beautiful winter landscape fills the windows! The trees seem to have caught every snowflake possible to add "frosting" to their trunks and branches while the ground between the train and the trees is pure white and untouched by any paw prints! A toot of the train's whistle makes this moment magical!
While wandering in Winter, you met Sabrina.
Sganeralle shook paws with Sabrina the Blue Beautiful Unicorn. They both received one silver mole!
@ Rugged Terrain “If there's time at the end when we get back to our accommodation, I might do some initial sketches for a watercolour painting," Philippa said, offering Sganeralle a toffee from the bag and then unwrapping one for herself. “That sounds like a good plan, Philippa!" said Sganeralle. Rugged Terrain As the train continues steadily on its journey, our friends notice some terrain that isn't as smooth as previously viewed. The remains of a lone pine tree without limbs and needles stands in stark contrast to the fuller trees they had just seen - reminding our friends that there is a cycle to life. The bright sunshine and blue skies brighten their spirits as they travel on.
While wandering in Winter, you met Philippa.
Sganeralle shook paws with Philippa the Precious Pink Dolphin. They both received one silver mole!
@ Mountain Pass “A picture of this would look lovely printed on Christmas cards, wouldn't it, Sganeralle?” Rick said. “It certainly would, Rick!" said Sganeralle. Mountain Pass Our day-trip adventurers notice tall, jagged mountains in the distance, with hints of a glacier on the side of one range. They wonder what it would be like to ride snow machines down into the midst of the mountain pass. Another toot of the whistle gets them ready for what's next!
While wandering in Winter, you met Rick.
Sganeralle shook paws with Rick the Brown Funky Monkey. They both received one silver mole!
@ Mountainside Cabins “Pass me the binoculars, Sganeralle!” said Nutsy Mouse. "I think that's a Canada goose just taking off over there!" Mountainside Cabins Pressing their noses against the windows, they now see several cabins tucked into the foothills of the mountain range, practically buried in snow! The tall evergreen trees point to the sky like snowy rockets ready to blast off into the wild blue yonder! A closer look reveals a path to the side of the first home, letting our friends know that those who live here have things under control and can still get out and about. What fun it would be to sled down these slopes!!
While wandering in Winter, you met Nutsy Mouse.
Sganeralle shook paws with Nutsy Mouse the Caffiend Clean Mouse. They both received one silver mole!
@ Off-roading! **** looked up from his map. "How is hygge pronounced, Sganeralle?" he asked. “You say it like HOO-ga" replied Sganeralle. "It's a Danish word but it's used in Norway, too." Off-roading! The train makes a scheduled stop at a crossroads where the passengers are invited to take a stretch and walk down a dirt path for horse-drawn sleighs. Our friends enjoy the opportunity to breathe the fresh, crisp air and are delighted to see some fall leaves still hanging from some trees while others are covered with white! As they walk a little distance from the train, the sound of the train's steam can be heard behind them.
While wandering in Winter, you met ****.
Sganeralle shook paws with **** the Arctic Feisty Fox. They both received one silver mole!
@ Swooshing! “Hey, have you seen what the next stop is, Sganeralle?” said Britney. "It looks fantastic!" "I'll get my camera ready," said Sganeralle. Swooshing! What's that sound? It isn't the train's steam billowing! Swoosh. Swoosh. Swish, Swish. All at once, a local resident comes popping through the trees, almost knocking our friends over! This little gnome is having a fun, adventuresome day as well as he skis out from one side of the path, hitting a mound of snow that sends him sailing slightly in the air, past our friends, and then lands on the path's other side, disappearing into the trees. Swoosh. Swoosh. Swish. Swish.
While wandering in Winter, you met Britney.
Sganeralle shook paws with Britney the Mandarin Duck. They both received one silver mole!
@ All Aboard! “You've got to admit, it takes real skills to drive a steam locomotive, Sganeralle,” said Flopsy. "It could take years to learn the various jobs." "Well, yes, Flopsy, I don't doubt that," said Sganeralle considering the matter. “But, you know, things have moved on, haven't they?" All Aboard! After some conversation of having just been plowed into by the little gnome skier, the three toots of the whistle announce that it's time for passengers to make their way back to the train and get on board for the next leg of their adventure! With snow now falling, it makes the somewhat hurried scurry a bit of fun as they try to catch snowflakes on their tongues!
While wandering in Winter, you met Flopsy.
Sganeralle shook paws with Flopsy the Graceful Elephant. They both received one silver mole!
@ Snow Covered Mountains “Ooh, it's just starting to get a bit cold, Sganeralle!” said Choose a name. “Can you hold my gloves and map while I dig out my scarf?" Sganeralle good-naturedly took charge of Choose a name's possessions while she emptied her rucksack of a pack of sandwiches, a Thermos flask, a pair of galoshes, a bag of toffees, a paperback novel, a bottle of mineral water, an address book, some postage stamps, an assortment of different coloured biros, a bottle opener, a couple of old train tickets, a handful of golden and silver moles, a door key, some shopping receipts, a screwdriver, a bottle of multivitamins, a lottery ticket and a selection of rather battered sachets of salt, sugar and tomato ketchup before locating the scarf right at the bottom. This she donned and then Sganeralle helped her put everything back in her rucksack. Snow Covered Mountains As the train lurches forward once again, there is no want for wonders to behold! Our travelers are blessed to take in the sweeping vista of another mountain range and the valley of snow that seems to flow into its rocks and rills like a river!
While wandering in Winter, you met Choose a name.
Sganeralle shook paws with Choose a name the Tabby Cat. They both received one silver mole!
@ Mountain Village “A picture of this would look lovely printed on Christmas cards, wouldn't it, Sganeralle?” Melinda said. “It certainly would, Melinda!" said Sganeralle. Mountain Village Off in the distance our travelers see a little village at the base of this mountain range. They can't help but wonder what the lives of the pets that live there must be like, waking up to such majestic mountains, beautiful trees, and sweeping snow!
While wandering in Winter, you met Melinda.
Sganeralle shook paws with Melinda the Midnight Happy Dragon. They both received one silver mole!
@ Snowy Village “I'm hungry, Sganeralle!” said Choose a name Thisisme. "Do you think they'd heat up the pizza I brought for tonight on the fireman's shovel?" "Here, have some of my sandwiches," offered Sganeralle. “It does sound like there's a crying need for a steam engine firebox cookery book, though, Choose a name Thisisme!" Snowy Village Our travelers are able to get more than a glimpse of the possibilities as the train takes them even closer to another village where they peer out of their windows into the windows of the homes before them, wondering whether the pets who live there are enjoying hot chocolate and popcorn on this chilly day!
While wandering in Winter, you met Choose a name Thisisme.
Sganeralle shook paws with Choose a name Thisisme the Panda Cub. They both received one silver mole!
Choose a name Thisisme and you found 5 Travel Tokens!
@ Foggy Viewpoint “A picture of this would look lovely printed on Christmas cards, wouldn't it, Sganeralle?” Tassie said. “It certainly would, Tassie!" said Sganeralle. Foggy Viewpoint The train's whistle toots again, alerting our travelers of another wonderful view coming up - that of being at the top of one such mountain and looking down at the tops of trees on the slopes below, as well as the top of a cloud no doubt filled with snow for those below!
While wandering in Winter, you met Tassie.
Sganeralle shook paws with Tassie the Arctic Feisty Fox. They both received one silver mole!
@ Sunset Over a Pond “What have you got in your tote bag, Flutterbye?” asked Tweety Pi. “It looks very full!” “I’ve come prepared for anything snowy, Tweety Pi,” responded Flutterbye. “There’s snowshoes, snow boots, Wellington boots, a pair of grippy things, ear muffs—you name it, I’ve got it!” Sunset Over a Pond After the train makes its way down the mountain range, another whistle toot draws our friendly pets' attention to a frozen pond, covered in snow with a beautiful sunset taking place off in the distance! The wooded slope, now silhouetted by the eventide, adds to the visual beauty of the sun, clouds, and blue sky overhead!
While wandering in Winter, you met Max.
Sganeralle shook paws with Max the Merry Mole. They both received one silver mole!
@ Mountain Top Sunset Spirit looked up from her map. "How is hygge pronounced, Sganeralle?" she asked. “You say it like HOO-ga" replied Sganeralle. "It's a Danish word but it's used in Norway, too." Mountain Top Sunset The train takes a climb to the top of another mountain where our travelers get a birds-eye view of the snow-filled clouds and hillsides below them. What a feast for the eyes!
While wandering in Winter, you met Spirit.
Sganeralle shook paws with Spirit the Wild Brumby Horse. They both received one silver mole!
@ Lone Cabin "Knock, knock!" said Sanura. "Who’s there?" replied Sganeralle. "Alpaca." "Alpaca who?" "Alpaca the suitcase, you see-a what time the train leaves!" Lone Cabin As the train makes its way down this mountain, our pets notice a quaint little cabin all to itself on the hillside, about to become enveloped with the clouds filled with snow. The sun's yellow glow still permeates through the thick clouds making for a neat treat to stare at!
While wandering in Winter, you met Sanura.
Sganeralle shook paws with Sanura the Grey Playful Kitten. They both received one silver mole!
@ Deer in the Distance "Knock, knock!" said Woolly. "Who’s there?" replied Sganeralle. "Alpaca." "Alpaca who?" "Alpaca the suitcase, you see-a what time the train leaves!" Deer in the Distance At the base of the mountain, there was one patch of land that hadn't yet been touched by the aforementioned snow-filled clouds. Gazing down the side track, not only were the remnants of fall still visible with various colors of leaves on the ground, but a lone deer stops its feeding to look up and greet the passersby on the train.
While wandering in Winter, you met Woolly.
Sganeralle shook paws with Woolly the Brown Funky Monkey. They both received one silver mole!
@ Viaduct View Milk mused over the itinerary. “Steam trains are so romantic, aren't they, Sganeralle?” she said. "Why aren't they still in use, seeing as they're so powerful, too?" Sganeralle considered this. “I think they're quite high maintenance compared to a modern train, Milk!" Viaduct View As the train's whistle toots again, and the pets see what's coming up ahead - they know that their day-trip is nearing its end. In front of you, the tracks lead across a long and high viaduct with incredible views on both sides of their passenger car. The friends realize that this was how their adventure began that morning: going through a viaduct, but much smaller and the view not as magnificent.
While wandering in Winter, you met Milk.
Sganeralle shook paws with Milk the Holstein Friesian Calf. They both received one silver mole!
@ Day's End Sganeralle opened his rucksack to find his hat. Rosco could see Sganeralle had a beret, a balaclava, a cricket cap, a Tam o' Shanter, a woolly bobble hat, a beanie, a deerstalker hat and a Peruvian chullo! “Did you bring a Stetson too?” Rosco asked Sganeralle. Day's End As the train's whistle blows long and loud repeatedly, and its speed slows down to a low chug-a-chug-a-chug, you know that your final destination - the north station is in front of you. With the sun setting and a cold mist settling in, the pets are glad they've made this journey together!
While wandering in Winter, you met Rosco.
Sganeralle shook paws with Rosco the Tabby Cat. They both received one silver mole!
@ Destination Digs “It would be great fun to camp in the snow overnight, wouldn't it, Felix?” said Sganeralle."In the morning you'd fill your kettle with snow and boil it suspended from a tripod of sticks, like they do in books." Felix shivered. “Brrrrrrrr! I think it would be a little too cold, Sganeralle! I like my creature comforts!" Destination Digs After disembarking from the train, the pets make their way to the cozy, warm hotel to call it a day. And what a day it has been! This wonderful place boasts several lounges where friends can stretch their legs (and tails), such as this woodsy-looking area with gentle lights, spacious couches, and soft pillows.
While wandering in Winter, you met Felix.
Sganeralle shook paws with Felix the Silver Fox. They both received one silver mole!
@ Bright Room "Do you think we'll see penguins at the end like we did on Snow Beach that time, Hansi (Icky Bird Who Can't Fly)?" asked Sganeralle. "Oh gosh, Sganeralle, do you remember those sharks, and the octopus as well? Poor Fresco took one look and hid in the bottom of the boat!" responded Hansi (Icky Bird Who Can't Fly). Bright Room Another lounge complete with reading materials is bright and reminds them of the snowy landscapes they traveled through during the day. The carpet is soft and white as snow, but definitely not as cold - perfect for grabbing a sofa pillow and stretching out on!
While wandering in Winter, you met Hansi (Icky Bird Who Can't Fly).

Fireside Room Another favorite lounge offers the warmth and crackles of a roaring fireplace, a neat sound after hearing the clackity-clack of the train throughout the day! It also offers a big row of windows to look out at the snowfall from a warm and safe distance.
While wandering in Winter, you met Flopsy.
Sganeralle shook paws with Flopsy the Graceful Elephant. They both received one silver mole!
@ Hot Chocolate Deluxe “If there's time at the end when we get back to our accommodation, I might do some initial sketches for a watercolour painting," Midnight said, offering Sganeralle a toffee from the bag and then unwrapping one for himself. “That sounds like a good plan, Midnight!" said Sganeralle. Hot Chocolate Deluxe What can be better than sitting in any of these fine lounges and enjoying the warmth of friendship and a good mug of hot chocolate, complete with whipped cream, chocolate "dust" and a milk chocolate stick to stir things with? Each of these pets would say, "Enjoying such with the best of friends!"
While wandering in Winter, you met Midnight.
Sganeralle shook paws with Midnight the Black Feisty Fox. They both received one silver mole!
@ Good Reads "Wasn’t it worth coming all this way, Sganeralle," said Soxy, "for this experience alone?" Sganeralle, admiring the scene they were now in, heartily agreed!

What's on this shelf?
While wandering in Winter, you met Soxy.
Sganeralle shook paws with Soxy the Ragdoll Kitten. They both received one silver mole!
@ End of the Day Sganeralle is tired out and ready to go home when Ali Haider comes along. "Wow! You find a special prize!" says Ali Haider. Sganeralle turns round and found it was just behind them! Frosty Tree When freezing fog and excess moisture meet with the perfect temperature, a picturesque winter wonderland is the result. This frosty display of crystalline beauty is either referred to as hoar frost or rime ice depending on the weather conditions. End of the Day While the excursion may have been a long and chilly one, as the friends continue to enjoy their hot chocolate (whipped topping all gone!), they look over some of their mementos that they picked up at the little stops the train was able to make along the way. They reminisce and smile with thankful, contented hearts.
While wandering in Winter, you met Ali Haider.
Sganeralle shook paws with Ali Haider the Snow Leopard. They both received one silver mole!
