About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Merry Clappum Junction, or, The Strange Adventures of the New Zealand Express & a Boy: a quick train of thought by Arnold Kennedy (1853-1938). Read and sung by Ruth Golding. This is a jolly little book about a little boy, a dog, a train and a house. But not an ordinary train, oh no, and not an ordinary house either! And there are songs, too. The Preface is short, dull and only for the grown-ups. (Summary by Ruth Golding)
