The Midnight Frequency: "The Occupancy Light"
Send us Fan Mail Ashgate signal box holds a desk, a kettle, a panel of indicator lights, and between ten at night and six in the morning a man named Ray Coburn. The panel has exactly two words in its vocabulary. Occupied, or clear. Tonight it is showing a section of the Ashgate branch occupied, which should not be possible, because the branch closed in 1984 and the rails came up in 1986. Regional Control logs it as a panel fault, category three, non-urgent, technician within fourteen days. Then section three clears and section four lights, and the arithmetic on the back of the log sheet comes out at two miles an hour. An original standalone story. Three voices. The Midnight Frequency. It's later than you think. Support the show
