Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
This comedy tracks the relationship between an ailing railroad president and the dogged reporter who tries to infiltrate his inner council by impersonating a doctor's assistant. The president desperately needs a respite from all the pressures of his illness and his failing company, and so takes off on his private train. During his journey, he encounters two tramps. Meanwhile the reporter finds the president's lovely daughter. Upon his return, the old railroad man is much refreshed and gives the reporter his story. He then saves the company.
