Gordon brags to Stanley about his excellent sense of direction as they race to Great Waterton. The winner gets to transport important passengers, while the loser must take the workmen. Eager to claim the prestigious task, Gordon decides to take some shortcuts, but soon finds himself lost, stubbornly ignoring the assistance offered by Duck, Oliver, and Toad. After a mishap involving Ben's log trucks that spill onto the tracks, Gordon finally seeks help from Ben, Duck, Oliver, and Toad. He arrives just in time to prevent Stanley from crashing into the logs, ultimately convincing Stanley to take the workmen instead.
