About this listen

This book is about the lives of Roberta, Peter, and Phyllis when their father goes away suddenly, and they are forced to move from a wealthy life in London to a simple place in the country. They fall in love with the Railway and all the folk that they meet there.

This timeless classic follows the adventures of the three children and their friends, such as the Old Gentlemen, as they come to love their new lives in the country and find happiness, friendship, and love around them.
