When their father disappears suddenly and mysteriously, Phyllis, Peter and Roberta must leave their wealthy London surroundings to live with their mother under poorer circumstances in the country. As time goes on, the children themselves become rescuers--of babies, injured boys, trains, and eventually their own family. In addition to being a children's classic, "The Railway Children" is a portrait of children's resilience in a harsh adult world.
