Comment
When a man pulls the emergency cord to stop a train so he can recover his hat, it means the passengers miss their connecting train and have to spend the night at a remote train station. The station master tells them a story about a ghost train that causes the death of any person who sees it. This is basically a vehicle for a series of Arthur Askey jokes as a lays the annoying musical hall comedian. The rest of the acting is staid, apart from the comparatively small part of Linden Travers who brings some life to her character.
