Ben’s one big interest is railways, particularly steam locomotives, and his favourite is The Lord of the Isles..
When step-sister Karen’s cat runs into the old disused railway tunnel it is Ben who is forced to go in and look for it. Halfway through the tunnel he realises that the rails are no longer rusty, but shiny with use, and what’s more, he feels the vibration of an oncoming train.
The tunnel acts as a passage into the 19th century. The quest now is not only to find the cat, but to escape from Mr Burns, the sweep master, when he captures Ben and Tom, the chimney sweep.Can Karen help them escape?
And what will become of Tom?
