it is about a signalman who sees a spectre when supposedly something bad is going to happen:
1. spectre seen=girl dies after falling from the train
2. spectre seen again=train derails in the tunnel and causes a fire and people die
3. spectre seen=the signalman actually gets run over by the train because he goes up close to the spectre and therefore steps into the trains path.
