Answer:

Summary of ''Engine Trouble''

What starts off as a prize winning quickly becomes a nightmare for our narrator, known only as the ''Talkative Man.'' At the start of the story, it appears that a carnival of sorts has rolled into town. The author describes the affair as ''all sorts of fun and gambling and side-shows,'' brought to town by ''a showman owning an institution called the Gaiety Land.'' Gaiety means happiness or excitement.

And, it's certainly exciting for the narrator, who finds himself the lucky winner of a road engine. The narrator had purchased tickets for a type of raffle drawing. His ticket was drawn, and he was an instant winner.

Winner Winner

To win a road engine was a pretty big ordeal, and the narrator was stunned. Now he had to figure out how to get the large and heavy engine home. Unable to transport it himself, he works out a deal with the Gymkhana Grounds, where the event was taking place, to keep the engine there until the season was over and he could make arrangements to get it moved.

Despite the peculiarity of the win, many came to congratulate the Talkative Man on his winnings. Friends and family were sure it would fetch a lot of money if he were to sell it.
