The track led straight into a mysterious stone tunnel that shimmered with a soft, purple light. "I wonder where this leads, Puff?" Lily whispered, patting the shiny blue engine. With a happy toot of his golden whistle, Puff rolled forward into the magical darkness.

Lily, a thoughtful child with tan skin and straight black hair, stands next to Puff, a friendly, shiny blue steam engine with a golden whistle and big friendly eyes on the front of the boiler. Lily and Puff are looking at a dark stone tunnel entrance covered in glowing purple moss in a green forest.

As they came out of the tunnel, Lily gasped in wonder at the bright world outside. The trees were taller than skyscrapers, and giant ferns brushed against the sides of the train. In the distance, big volcanoes puffed friendly clouds of smoke into the orange sky. This wasn't the park anymore; they had traveled back to the age of the dinosaurs! Lily watched as a colorful dragonfly, as big as a bird, zipped past Puff's boiler.

Lily, a thoughtful child with tan skin and straight black hair, peeks out from the train's window.

Suddenly, Puff slowed down as a small dinosaur waddled onto the tracks. It was a green Stegosaurus who looked very sad. "Hello there," Lily said kindly as she hopped down from the engine. The dinosaur let out a quiet sigh and pointed toward the thick jungle. He had lost his favorite shiny sun-stone, and he couldn't find it anywhere in the tall grass. Lily promised to help her new friend find his lost treasure.

Puff, a friendly, shiny blue steam engine with a golden whistle and big friendly eyes on the front of the boiler, watches Lily and Spike from the tracks.

Lily used her magnifying glass to search through the enormous, heart-shaped leaves. She looked under a speckled mushroom and behind a mossy rock while Puff whistled a cheerful tune. Suddenly, something sparkled! Hidden beneath a silver fern was a perfectly round, golden stone that glowed like the sun. Spike the Stegosaurus let out a happy chirp and wagged his tail, making his yellow plates wiggle with joy.

Puff, a friendly, shiny blue steam engine with a golden whistle and big friendly eyes on the front of the boiler, lets out a puff of white steam in the background.

It was time to head home before the stars came out. Lily climbed back into the cab and waved a warm goodbye to Spike. The friendly dinosaur stood by the tracks, guarding his shiny stone and watching his new friends leave. Puff puffed a cloud of white steam and rolled back into the glowing tunnel. Lily couldn't wait to tell her family about the secret prehistoric world hidden just beyond the hills.
