Quickly

The gang solve a train mystery.

Thoughts, Details and Recap

The gang are going on a train trip. Daphne is restricting her senses to make the others stronger. The train ride is ruined for Shaggy and Scooby when a porter forces Scooby to go into a crate. Shaggy deals with this by dressing Scooby up as his mother. In the tradition of their best bits, Scooby embraces the role. 

Over the course of the train ride, people are attacked by a mummy, a grim reaper, Tengu, Haniver, Tzitzimitl, Hemogoblin, and Manticore. They meet a scientist transporting a single nostril to transplant into a waiting patient. They are eventually chased through out the train by monsters. The conductor blames them and locks them up in crates in the luggage car and says he's arranged to have them arrested.

The gang investigates from the dog crates with Shaggy and Daphne offering the clues needed to solve the mystery. It's one of the best scenes for demonstrating why they work as a team that I can remember. Shaggy observes a clue because he and Scooby spent time exploring the train. Fred is as always a good leader. Daphne is always looking to develop new skills. Velma is brilliant with computers. Scooby is always hesitant but willing to get involved with the hijinks.

They catch the menagerie. It's a bunch of international operators. And the conductor isn't a conductor, he's a government agent.
