The Ghost Train // 21-25 Apr

an elderly spinster with a
parrot – are stranded in the
waiting room of an isolated
railway station on a dark
and stormy night. Each
reacts with various degrees
of credulity to the station
master’s warning of death
to anyone who sets eyes on
the ghostly train that haunts
the line.
