Nesbit Edith Knihy

Jedného večera sa životy Bobbie, Petra a Phyllis navždy zmenia, keď ich otca záhadne odvedú preč. Skôr ako sa dozvedia príčinu, musia sa s matkou odsťahovať zo svojho domu v Londýne na vidiek. V blízkosti ich vidieckeho domu je železničná stanica a Bobbie, Petrovi a Phyllis železnica zakrátko prirastie k srdcu. Mávajú na okoloidúce vlaky, spriatelia sa s náčelníkom stanice a výpravcom a dokonca zachránia vlak a cestujúcich pred železničným nešťastím. Priateľstvo so starým pánom, ktorý každodenne cestuje vlakom, vnesie svetlo do ich nového života.
