Luckily, the Peg Plus Cat
Express has special abilities.
If Cat pushes the steering lever
up, the train can go above them.

Counting backwards

only tray is missing?
- Yep! subtract equals .
- Yeah, but there were
chickens in that one tray!
- chickens?!
- So,
we're missing chickens,
symphonies, bananas,
