Question

The Railway Children, how did Bobbie find out about her father?

Answer 1

Seeing a headline in the newspaperThe Railway Children (Literature) - TV Tropes

Call-Back: Bobbie finds out about her father by seeing a headline in the newspaper. This gets twisted around at the end where everyone tells her the good news they read in the paper but she doesn't find out until her father arrives.

Step-by-step explanation:

have a nice day.

Answer 2

Bobbie reads in the newspaper that their father has been found guilty of spying and will face five years in jail. She reaches out to a neighbor to request his help in proving her father’s innocence. This kooky cast of characters also features Perks the Railway Porter, Schoolboy Jim, the Station Master, and the kindly old gentleman passenger who knows more than meets the eye.
Hope that helps.
