Damian Cruden directs this stage adaptation of the novel by E. Nesbit in a live recording at the National Railway Museum in York. Bobby (Rozzi Nicholson), Peter (Izaak Cainer) and Phyllis (Beth Lilly) are three siblings who relocate, with their mother (Andrina Carroll), from London to a cottage in the Yorkshire countryside through economic hardship. Determined to make the best of their new life, the three children charm their new neighbours including Mr and Mrs Perks (Martin Barrass and Elianne Bryne) and warmly greet the trains as they pass the nearby station. This performance features the original locomotive that was used in the well-loved film adaptation.
