Hi Mark, sorry, I just saw this. I don't understand why that has happened. Are you able to raise it with Goodreads admin team?

A lot of Changing Trains is based on a similar journey I took a long time ago. And I wanted to write a fiction piece across two time-scapes and travelling a lot by train myself gave me the format. In fact I wrote a lot of it on the Eurostar.
