The Runaway Train is an audio story, the first to feature the Eleventh Doctor and Amy. Written by Oli Smith, it was released in May 2010, a month after the Eleventh Doctor’s formal debut in The Eleventh Hour. The Runaway Train is a story written specifically for audio but not a full cast audio drama. The Runaway Train was narrated by the Eleventh Doctor himself Matt Smith. The Runaway Train takes place during the American Civil War and the Doctor organised a posse to retrieve an alien artefact that has fallen into the hands of the Confederate Army. Including the use of the titular train this is a good romp of an adventure in The Wild West with the tension expressed with members of the posse due to the atmosphere of the Civil War playing out well in this story. A good denouement and quite amusing how the Doctor round things up at the end. As The Runaway Bride was set in the Wild West, the Doctor and Amy returned to such a setting in last year’s TV episode A Town Called Mercy.
