Details

Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel #1526 Mike Mulligan and his steam shovel, Mary Anne were a great team. They dug canals for big boats, they cut through mountains so trains could pass through, and other big construction tasks. But, steam shovels are being replaced by more modern machinery. Mike Mulligan refused to allow his beloved steam shovel to be relegated to the junk heap. Desperate for work, Mike promises to dig the cellar of Popperville's new town hall in just one day--or go without pay. All the townsfolk gather to watch Mike and Mary Anne in their race against the sun. They win, but in his haste, Mike forgets a very important detail.
