It deals with an unpaying passenger escaping the General Inspector of railroads after sleeping in his special wagon. He is then by circumstances forced to adopt the persona of master of the local railroad station. He then is forced to act at this duty before the General Inspector, committing a number of blunders due to his lack of experience and knowledge of railroad administration.

The plot also involves the absent real railroad master's wife being constantly eyed by the General Inspector, as well as a local landowner.
