Thoughts of railway teenagers after reading

This story happened in London in the19th century. Three children and their parents live in the suburbs, in a modern house-a villa with red bricks in front.

There are three children in this family: Roberta is the oldest and she is the mother's favorite child; My brother's name is Peter, and he wants to be an engineer. My youngest sister is Phyllis.

Mother plays with the children every day, helps them with their homework, writes stories to them and reads them after dinner. She also wrote some interesting poems on unusual days.

Dad is a government official, never angry, and is a fair "perfect father". The family lived happily.

But one night, a terrible thing happened at home and my father was taken away. A few days after their mother disappeared, they sold their house in London and moved to a place in the country called "Three Chimneys". In the countryside, my mother can only write novels in the attic to subsidize her family, and even the bread that she didn't want to see in the past has become a luxury.

There, the children have nowhere to go, and their mothers have no time to study with them. They can only go to a railway and a small station under the hillside to play every day. Peter also found a coal mine, so he pushed a coal digger to steal it. Because his family couldn't afford coal, he was once caught by the stationmaster, who forgave them after telling the reason. Therefore, they met the stationmaster.

They go to the railway every day and wave to the train bound for London (where their father is). An old gentleman often waved to them on the train, and they became friends who had never spoken.

After a while, the children got to know Boxer, the station worker, the village doctor and the boiler worker of the train, and experienced many interesting and thrilling things. Once, they went up the mountain to pick wild cherries, and suddenly they found a landslide on the mountain, blocking the railway, and the train was coming soon. They immediately decided to run in front of the train to stop it. Bobby wants the train to stop, even after it stops.

After many things, they found that the old gentleman was a senior government official. They asked the old gentleman to help them to re-investigate their father's affairs, and finally rescued their father, and the family lived a happy and sweet life again.

After reading this novel, I learned Peter's courage, Bobby's wisdom and Fritz's thoughtful thinking, but what I learned more was that people at that time were unprepared for each other, and two strangers could greet each other as soon as they met. The children asked the train to meet their father, and an old gentleman waved to them. Isn't this a beautiful and harmonious scene? But it's different now. People's attitudes are almost always cold. People are wary of each other everywhere, and few people trust them in their hearts. At that time, three children even asked a strange old gentleman for something, and the old gentleman gave them something. Isn't this a kind of trust?
