It's over: I've already depicted you as the seething broad gauge train, and myself as the smug narrow gauge!

A sketch of two steam trains, human faces on the front. The title above them says 'The Broad Gauge and the Narrow Gauge'. The narrow gauge train is looking unbearably smug, then broad gauge absolutely raging. In the smoke, they are communicating, the broad gauge saying "You are a locomotive" and the narrow saying "You are another".
