The train was still burning when we found it washed up a few metres away from the pier. There aren't any tracks or even a station for a good hundred-odd miles but there were worn looking rails leading into the sea and dozens of footprints coming from the train, heading into the water.
Out of the nine carriages only one body was found and it made everything that little bit more confusing. The official forensics report just states that they died of smoke inhalation. Sources from the inside say the body was so decomposed they predicted the time of death as being over five years ago.
He was found curled up inside the furnace, not burnt like everything else but having asphyxiated nonetheless. It was as if the fire had come from somewhere outside or around the furnace but the furnace itself was so clean it might as well have been brand new.
The train was moved to a secure location within hours and the news is declaring it a prank, a movie set and a whole cluster of lies to stop us from asking any more questions. However, the tracks are still there and every day since, more footprints are found in the morning - all circling the tracks and leading back into the sea.
Someone out there is still waiting for their train and they're getting impatient.
