How can a train running ten minutes late enter a tunnel as usual but fail to emerge from the other end? This is what happens to the stopping train to the seaside town of Waverly on the south coast of England. An engine pulling three coaches has disappeared, seemingly into thin air, and the authorities here are at full stretch to ascertain what has happened to it. All efforts to find a reasonable, natural explanation have failed.

Could it have something to do with the very valuable painting that was on board and under guard or are darker forces at work from other worlds? Can The far End Of The Tunnel answer this question whilst providing possible solutions to some other mysteries that have puzzled mankind for centuries.
