The Railway Children Return FIRST LOOK: Trailer for the sequel to the 1970s classic sees an American soldier in need of saving while Sheridan Smith and Jenny Agutter dote on World War II evacuees

The official trailer for The Railway Children Return was released by StudioCanal on Wednesday and it promises to be an ‘enchanting and heart-warming’ adventure for a new generation. 

The film, slated for release on 15 July 2022, is an eagerly-anticipated sequel to the 1970s classic The Railway Children and will follow child evacuees from Salford to the Yorkshire village of Oakworth during the Second World War. 

Jenny Agutter is reprising her role as Roberta ‘Bobbie’ Waterbury over five decades since the original film – and she is joined by onscreen daughter Sheridan Smith (Annie) as they dote on the evacuees: Lily (Beau Gadsdon), Pattie (Eden Hamilton) and Ted (Zac Cudby).

While navigating their new surroundings, the curious children find injured American soldier, Abe (Kenneth Aikens [KJ]), hiding in the yard at Oakworth Station. 

They quickly befriend him and embark on a potentially-dangerous quest to assist him in finding his way home. 

Also starring in the upcoming feel-good family feature include Austin Haynes as Bobbie’s grandson, as well as BAFTA-Award winning actor Tom Courtenay and Game Of Thrones’ John Bradley.
