Review

No childhood is complete without this novel. --The Telegraph

爸爸蒙冤被捕，一家人被迫搬到铁路附近的乡下，妈妈独立支撑起整个家庭。然而孩子们还是健康快乐地成长，热爱生活，乐于助人。铁路边也因此发生了许多感人至深的故事。

Roberta, Phyllis and Peter have their comfortable lives in London thrown into disarray by the unexpected disappearance of their father. They are forced to move to a small cottage in the countryside with their mother, who struggles to make ends meet by writing books. The children find solace in a stretch of railway track and the station nearby, and befriend the railway porter, who teaches them about running the station, and an old gentleman who takes the 9.15 train every day. Through this love of the trains they are led on many exciting adventures, including a quest to discover the secret of their father's disappearance.
