Jack Hopkins (played by Michael Craig) is an aircraft designer with a passion for traction engines and he owns one called ''The Iron Maiden''. His boss (played by Cecil Parker) is eager to sell a new supersonic jet aircraft (actually an RAF Hadley Page Victor bomber) that Jack has designed to American millionaire Paul Fisher (Alan Hale, Jr.). The first encounter between Fisher and Jack goes badly, and tensions only heighten after Fisher's daughter Kathy (Anne Helm) damages ''The Iron Maiden'', rendering it impossible to be driven solo. Jack is desperate to enter the annual Woburn Abbey steam rally with the machine, but his fireman (steam engine) is injured and unable to participate. When all seems lost, the millionaire himself is won over by Jack's plight and joins him in driving the engine, and the two soon become firm friends.
