Detailed explanation-1: -The three children, Roberta (known by her nickname Bobbie), Phyllis and Peter, find amusement in watching the trains on the nearby railway line and waving to the passengers.
Detailed explanation-2: -But Peter cried, “Come back!” and looked at Mother’s watch. He was very prompt and businesslike, and his face looked whiter than they had ever seen it.
Detailed explanation-3: -Chapter 7 Summary Bobbie remains occasionally haunted by the near-disaster on the railway line, and sometimes awakes from nightmares. She is, however, always comforted by the thought that nothing bad happened thanks to her and her siblings’ timely intervention.
Detailed explanation-4: -The children chose to make red flags to wave against the upcoming train to warn the engine driver. The railway track was blocked by uprooted trees and rocks. The red colour usually symbolizes the danger. If they had chose any other colour, it might not convey the right message to the engine driver.
