Please be assured all ad blocks have been applied to ensure no over 18 or inappropriate ads are played.

However, there may be the odd occasion where an advert slips through the net because the company submitting them submits them under a category that is not correct. This happens very rarely and I do my upmost to stop this happening.

I take this very seriously and I really appreciate your support and co-operation.

0:00.0	Hey everyone and welcome back to short stories for kids, the magical podcast of story adventures.
0:13.5	And now it's time for today's story request. Hi Lucy, my son Miles loves your show. His birthday is coming up on May the 18th,
0:25.1	and he turns five. Miles also has a little brother, almost three years old, called Ellis. Miles would
0:33.1	like a story about a magic flying train that can go in water or on the highway or rocks and fly
0:42.2	and can even land on the trees. It's robotic and doesn't have a driver. Miles was awake. Today had been his birthday, and he really should have been worn out,
1:06.4	not to mention that he was full of cake, but for some reason, he just couldn't get to sleep.
1:13.5	Maybe it was because of all the excitement that still had his brain buzzing. You see, Miles had
1:20.7	an amazing imagination, full of wonderful ideas, and sometimes it was hard to turn the ideas off. Like today, for example.
1:31.5	For his birthday, Miles had received lots of Lego. He loved Lego. Just before bed, he'd had the

2:04.6	had lit up, just like a real one. The phone was ringing. Uh, hello, said Miles as he picked it up
2:13.9	cautiously. Good evening, sir, said a voice on the Lego phone.
2:19.4	Just letting you know that your taxi is outside.
2:23.3	My taxi? said Miles, climbing out of bed and heading to the window.
2:28.6	I didn't order a taxi.
2:30.8	I know, laughed the voice.
2:33.5	But you were having trouble sleeping, so I thought you might like to go for a ride.
2:40.2	Miles looked outside and gasped.
2:42.8	He'd been expecting a car, but there was a very different kind of vehicle out there.
