Johnnie loves two things: his train and the lovely Annabelle Lee. When the Civil War breaks out, he enlists as a soldier, but it is decided that he is too valuable as an engineer. Annabelle thinks it is because he is a coward. When Union spies capture Johnnie with Annabelle on board, Johnnie "The General" must rescue both his loves.
