  • Christmas Eve: the Fat Controller has just concluded a lengthy board meeting with Dr Beeching. On his way home he is spooked by a ghostly apparition of the Doctor, who warns him of an ensuing visitation from three spirits; the spirit of railways past, present, and yet to come. The Fat controller learns about the history of the early railway, it's present development and what the future may hold. How will the fat Controller prevent the closure of the branch line, and the creation of the Melchester Bypass?
