The Mysterious Traveler

FORMAT: MP3 CD The Mysterious Traveler was a show that conjured up both an image of the story being told, as well as the creepy narrator telling it. He was just as the title said, a "mysterious traveler" that we met each week on the train. It would begin with the distant sound of a phantom train approaching.
