This story of a thrush that missed, and caught its train comes from Lima- vady, in Ulster, Ireland. The bird had built its nest under a first-class car- riage immediately over the steam heat ing pipe, and notwithstanding that the carriage traveled between Limavady and Londonderry, the nest contained four eggs The institution of the summer serv- ice of trains caused trouble. The car riage left l.ondonderry in the evening at 4:40 instead of 4:50, and when the mother thrush, who had presumably been on a foraging expedition, re- turned, she found carriage, nest and eggs had disappeared She was no ticed at Londonderry in apparent dis- tress, and the station master apprised Limavady of the circumstances and asked the railway people there to look out for the bird, suggesting that she would probably arrive by the next train. The bird duly arrived at Lima- vady either by traln or air and re- sumed her task of hatching the eggs The sympathetic railway officials have decided to withdraw the carriage from service pending the hatching of the eggs For the Collection Box.
