Bud and John get back to find that Walt & Roger are still trying to sort out the flat cars for the return journey. Ed Sloat is unhappy that the engines are going right back out again without any maintenance, but does what he can. Bud gets Betty to call in his wife Kate to help run things, even though he and Kate don't get on any more. They get on with loading the fire crews and equipment as quickly as they can, then set off. In Warsaw, Fred Linder is trying to hold the situation, the small Hoselton department has arrived to help, but Linder is wondering where the train is. Linder and Chip Halsey are discussing ways to manage the situation at the fertilizer plant without contaminating the ground water. As Linder checks the railroad tracks for snowdrifts, he realises the wind has changed direction.
