Additional InformationJenny Agutter (who played Bobbie in a 1970 film version) stars as Mother alongside Sir Richard Attenborough in this Masterpiece Theater presentation of Edith Nesbit's popular novel. Set in Yorkshire at the dawn of the 20th century, THE RAILWAY CHILDREN is the story of three children whose father has been wrongfully imprisoned for espionage, though they know nothing of this; their mother refuses to tell them why the police took away their father. So, the children spend their free time exploring the mystery of their father's disappearance and gazing at the nearby railroad in the hope that it will somehow bring them an answer. After they help prevent an accident on the railroad, the children are befriended by a mysterious old gentleman (Attenborough) who may be able to provide some answers.

This version grows on me on a second voewing’
Phyllis is quite outstanding and Peter is good too. The rest of the cast grew on me on a second viewing and I enjoyed the variations from the original film. I recommend buying it if you want to see a second interpretation and are willing to not constantly put it up against the Lionel Jeffries film! It is different and worth seeing. It is a different look at the story but it has its merits and yes I did find the ending moving - well done Roberts and Father. See it with an open mind and don’t compare!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Enjoyable, but not as much as the original
It was fairly close to the book, but not as good as the original film. I felt the scenes flitted about a bit too much. The characters were portrayed well.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

A trip down memory lane
It takes you back to when the country was a very different place. Family meant everything back in these days and you were strongly encouraged to believe in the truth and justice and happiness!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Remakes are rarely an improvement
Didn't know that 'The Railway Children' had been remade. This is a pale imitation of the original production and I wouldn't have bought it if I had realised thatVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
