The Railway Children
06 December 2010 - 11 December 2010
Keighley Playhouse
When their father is escorted from their comfortable London home, Roberta, Phyllis and Peter have to move with their mother to a remote cottage in Yorkshire, close to the railway line.
Fascinated, they wave to the passengers faithfully every day and through their various adventures they become friendly with Mr Perks, the station porter and eventually with the elderly gentleman who waves to them from his train each morning.
Eventually their vigilance and courage prevent an accident and in return for their kindness they make friends of some important people who can help solve the mystery of their missing father.
