The Death on the Buffer Stop


Listen Later

Hywel and Rhian find themselves in a silent freight yard where the tracks end at a rusted buffer stop. When a man appears on the siding, pursued by someone identical to him, the encounter quickly turns violent — and then repeats itself.

As more identical figures emerge from the shadows, replaying the same confrontation over and over, it becomes clear that this is not a coincidence or a misunderstanding. The yard is restaging something, and Hywel and Rhian may be closer to its centre than they realise. When the figures vanish and the platform falls quiet once more, the sense remains that whatever was meant to arrive has already been and gone.
