In Tale of the Unnamed Engine, a young boy finds himself in a museum filled with talking trains, and with the help of an old steam engine, travels back to the late nineteen forties, to experience Britain's steam railways like never before!

In this second story a young boy Stanley and his sister Molly who meet up with a long since withdrawn ex-Great Western Railway locomotive who reminisces about her time before and during the Second World War.
In doing so the young children learn not only about a raft of human emotions along with some valuable lessons about life but also the importance of right from wrong through the tales of the old locomotive. But also, about kindness to each other and those around them as they experience once again a world filled with talking trains, and with the help of the comforting and kind old steam engine, they travel back to the late nineteen thirties and into the nineteen forties to a bygone era, experiencing Britain's steam railways like never before!

This is the second companion book to The British Railway Stories, and rich in imagery and history, just like the Tale of the Unnamed Engine as the origin story for the characters made a cult hit through YouTube.
