Marie enters Roger's room one morning to find he has disappeared. Unknown to her, he's gone to live on the trains travelling from station to station without any destination. His journey of self-discovery is triggered when he hurls a briefcase full of fifty-pound notes at the police and scales the ticket barrier at London Victoria station. From then on, his eventful journey becomes anything but far from his expectations. He observes series of unsavory and unlawful activities which he divulges to an unimaginative detective inspector about to be fired from his job. In consequence, he not only saves his career but also gains promotion. Soisin, a gipsy girl he meets on the train introduces him to Buddhism and his life begins to turn around, rapidly transforming his karma into mission.
