內容簡介

爸爸蒙冤被捕,一家人被迫搬到鐵路附近的鄉下,媽媽獨立支撐起整個家庭。然而孩子們還是健康快樂地成長,熱愛生活,樂於助人。鐵路邊也因此發生了許多感人至深的故事。
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.
