"The Railway Children" is a children's book by E. Nesbit. The story concerns a family who move to "Three Chimneys", a house near the railway, after the father, who works at the Foreign office, is imprisoned after being falsely accused of spying. The children befriend an old Gentleman who regularly takes the 9:15 train near their home; he is eventually able to help prove their father's innocence, and the family is reunited. The family takes care of a Russian exile, Mr. Szczepansky, who came to England looking for his family (later located) and Jim, the grandson of the old Gentleman, who suffers a broken leg in a tunnel.©2016 Audioliterature (P)2016 Audioliterature Railroad Literature & Fiction Fiction Chapter Books & Readers Chapter Books
