Anoraks

The Woman in the Red Coat


Listen Later

On a remote rural train platform at dusk, Hywel and Rhian wait for a chronically late service, passing the time with tea, biscuits, and familiar complaints about slipping standards. As mist rolls in and the wind picks up, their routine is interrupted by the arrival of a solitary woman in a red coat carrying a spade.

What begins as mild curiosity turns quietly horrifying when the woman starts digging on the trackbed — and buries something that was never meant to be found. Faced with the unthinkable, Hywel and Rhian must decide whether to intervene, report what they’ve seen… or do what most people do best: look the other way.

Anoraks is a short-form audio micro-series, with each episode unfolding in real time over just a few minutes — intimate, atmospheric stories where everyday routines brush up against the unsettling and the unexplained.
