The year is 1968. The world is being changed for ever. During the month of May, students are rioting and workers are striking across the globe, civil rights are being fought and died for, nuclear bombs are being tested, there are major conflicts on every continent, and war is raging in Vietnam.

The Seventh Train is a ride - a 'road movie' on the railways. It's a journey that Elizabeth invented; the only original thought she has ever had in her previously uneventful life. Unbeknown to her, she is not travelling alone. If only she'd pretended that the spare seat was taken.
