description: ÒNight TrainÓ is the tale of a conversation between three people travelling from Dublin to Cork by train. John, the narrator, is on his way to his uncleÕs funeral in Cork. In chapter one he gets into a conversation with a R.C. priest, also on the train and as the priest leaves, a conversation develops between John and a young couple, Timothy and Caroline. Deliberately, the characters of Timothy and Caroline are not fleshed out and are left rather one dimensional, Caroline disapproving, Timothy interested for reasons he never explains. All three are returning to Ireland, John from London, Timothy and Caroline from New York.
