Mismatched travelers are stranded overnight at a lonely rural railway station. They soon learn of local superstition about a phantom train which is said to travel these parts at dead of night, carrying ghosts from a long-ago train wreck in the area.
The travelers eventually get to the bottom of the things that go bump in the night. In between the scary bits, comedian Arthur Askey plays the gags with his Vaudeville style humor, to the constant irritation of his fellow passengers.
Trivia
Writer Arnold Ridley came up with the idea for this story whilst standing on the platform of Mangotsfield Station near Bristol. The station is surrounded on three sides by tracks, and there was an earth bank opposite him which reflected the sounds of trains coming along the track on the other side of the station, making it sound like a train was coming that would never arrive.
