In February, 1922, at the western-most entrance to Victoria Station in
Manchester, a massive plaque was unveiled. Beneath a vast tiled map
showing the lines of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway network, a
series of seven bronze panels recorded the names of the men of the
Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway who gave their lives for King and
Country in the Great War - a total of 1,460 names.
In March, 1940, a group of women of varying ages and backgrounds, stand
in front of the memorial, ready to do their bit in this new World
War...

Mabel is determined to make a fresh start as a railway girl where no
one will know the terrible thing she did and she can put her guilt
behind her... Or is she just running away?
Meanwhile Joan will never be as good as her sister, or so her Gran
keeps telling her. A new job as a station clerk could be just the thing
she needs to forget her troubles at home.
And Dot is further into her forties than she cares to admit. Her
beloved sons are away fighting and her husband - well, the less said
about him the better. Ratty old sod. She is anxious to become a railway
girl just like her dear mam - anything to feel she is supporting the
sons she prays for every night.
The three women start off as strangers, but soon form an unbreakable
bond that will get them through the toughest of times...
