Set in and around a country railway station at the turn of the twentieth century, the plight of the railway children grappling with their new environment is imaginatively brought to life for a modern audience while losing nothing of the original spirit of humour, tension, adventure and the final triumph of good over evil.-Large flexible cast
Four English children find a wonderful world of magic through an enchanted wishing ring.
After his father is captured in South America and presumed dead, Edred Arden inherits the title Lord of Arden and moves with his sister Elfrida into the family castle. Here the children discover an ancient spell, which they use to conjure up the magical Mouldiwarp. With his help, they set off in search of the lost Arden treasure. Soon a magical time-travelling adventure begins and the children find themselves in the middle of the Napoleonic wars and imprisoned in the tower for treason. But still no treasure. Wiser but slightly disappointed, the children return to the present to discover the greatest treasure of all waiting for them...their father.
