Some boys are out flying a kite in fields at the back of the house. Next, they’re on a train, the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway in Cumbria. They get off at Ravenglass Station, where the locomotive is turned on the turntable and they take the journey back again. The film finishes with them again flying a kite.
