The Ghost Train

This version of The Ghost Train written by Arnold Ridley (Private Godfrey in Dad's Army) and revised by his son, Nicolas Ridley is being staged as a Radio play.The action takes place in the waiting room of a wayside station on the South Cornwall Joint Railway.

A group of mismatched rail passengers find themselves stranded in a dark and isolated station having missed the last connection of the night.

Tales of superstition prevail as the local station master, unable to persuade the passengers to leave, reveals that on this night, twenty years ago, a train crashed leaving a number of passengers dead.

Legend has it that the station is still haunted by the train reliving its final moments as it roars through the station to its demise.
