Peter’s Railway Holiday at Lunan Bay

Christopher G. C. Vine

Peter is on holiday with his family in Scotland when Grandpa learns of a spectacular train crash. It happened nearby so they go exploring to find the exact spot. To add to the adventure they discover some evidence still lying on the ground – It’s a true story where a crazy mistake led to disaster, but luckily no-one was hurt. To show how easy it is to make a blunder like this, Grandpa tells another story which ends with a Bang!

Reviews of Peter’s Railway Holiday at Lunan Bay

"Your books are amazing. There isn't a great deal out there for boys aged 9 regarding trains, and both my 7 year old and 9 year old love your stories. They are quite inspiring." Emma "My son Henry, aged 6, and I would like you to know how very much we enjoyed your latest book. It was funny and educational! What more could we ask for – When will the next one be out? We just can't wait!" Nicky and Henry

Christopher G. C. Vine

Since a very small boy, Chris has always loved everything mechanical, especially steam engines. The first workshop was in his bedroom where he made an electric go-kart aged 8, followed by a mini-bike powered by the engine from a petrol lawn mower. He spent many holidays on a friend’s farm where there was a miniature railway across a field and so started a love of making model steam locomotives. The latest is Bongo, 8 feet long and the inspiration for Fiery Fox in the books. Chris wanted to share his love and knowledge of railways and engineering: Peter’s Railway is the result.
