A beautiful text which takes us on a fantasy train ride through a storm at night.

When the rain fingers drum out a dance on the pane
When the windows are foggy enough for my name
When it's thundering down on the roof, in the lane
From the storm, comes the call ...
"All aboard the Rain Train!"

Join the children for a journey on the Rain Train. Listen to the noises the train makes as it moves through the countryside and into the dark night.
