Charles Dickens enjoyed train travel(he was himself involved in a train crash at Staplehurst.UK although not injured) and always wondered about what happens in those lonely signalboxes at night. As a Signalman myself I have worked in those lonely places and could understand how the signalman felt. It's a good portrayal of the short story that Dickens wrote and was worth watching.
