The dead don't rest easy at Borth station on the Cardigan Coast. And they have a message for Stationmaster Rhodri Davies. When Rhodri Davies follows a mysterious figure onto the tracks during a snowstorm-only to watch him vanish into thin air-he dismisses it as exhaustion playing tricks on his mind. But the ghostly encounters keep coming: phantom footsteps echoing through empty waiting rooms, telegraph wires that whisper warnings when no one is sending, and a Victorian guard who appears with his lantern raised moments before disaster strikes. Then the unthinkable happens. A cattle train derails at Borth station, a catastrophe Rhodri realises could have been prevented if only he'd understood the ghostly warnings in time. As Rhodri delves deeper into the station's supernatural dimensions, he discovers something extraordinary: Borth exists in two worlds simultaneously. The ghosts aren't merely haunting the station-they're protecting it. Every railway worker who ever died on the Cambrian line still walks its tracks, maintaining an eternal vigil to prevent future tragedies. With his pragmatic wife Margaret, loyal signalman Tommy Thomas, and a sceptical Oswestry inspector who's about to have his rational world view shattered, Rhodri must learn to interpret the warnings from beyond the grave. Because another disaster is coming-and this time, he's the only one who can stop it. All aboard. The dead are waiting.
