The Railway Children

Listen to the book that inspired the upcoming film The Railway Children Return starring Jenny Agutter, John Bradley, Tom Courtenay and BAFTA-winning actress Sheridan Smith. When Roberta, Phyllis and Peter's father is accused of being a spy and sent to prison, the children and their mother are forced to leave their comfortable city life for the countryside. They move into a small cottage called "Three Chimneys" close to a railway station. As the children settle into their new home, the railway soon becomes the centre of their lives: promising new friends, plenty of adventures, and perhaps even the key to bringing their father home... The Railway Children is a heart-warming, timeless classic of friendship, family and bravery.
