A criminal referred to by the press as "The Wrecker" is orchestrating accidents on Britain's railways. One such accident occurs on the (fictional) United Coast Lines Railway, whose train is carrying Roger Doyle (Joseph Striker), who has retired from Cricket to work on the railway. Roger survives, and reports the accident to his uncle, Sir Gerald Bartlett (Winter Hall), the managing director of the railway, and his assistant, the sly Ambrose Barney (Carlyle Blackwell). Unbeknownst to them, Ambrose is The Wrecker, and is also the head of the Kyle Motor-Coach Company, whose buses are introduced on services where The Wrecker has struck, hoping to frighten passengers off of the trains and onto buses. When Sir Gerald becomes suspicious of Ambrose following yet another accident, he is shot dead.

Echoué pendant la nuit à la gare de Mangotsfield, lors d'un voyage en train à travers la campagne du Gloucestershire . L’atmosphère de la station abandonnée, combinée à l’entente sans escale de Bath à Gloucester utilisant une ligne principale de déviation incurvée adjacente pour contourner Mangotsfield, créant ainsi l’illusion d’un train approchant, passant mais partant sans être vu, s’impressionnant sur les sens de Ridley
