The Runaway Train is an exclusive story featuring the Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond.

Originally announced as the second Eleventh Doctor audio adventure release, with an issue date of 3rd June 2010, it was subsequently indicated by online retailers such as Amazon that released had been delayed until 3rd February 2011. However, they pushed release forward to 6th October 2010

However, it was then announced that the UK newspaper The Daily Telegraph, would be issuing The Runaway Train as a special promotional giveaway with its issue of 24th April 2010. The audio The Hounds of Artemis, originally scheduled for release on 8 April, is now scheduled for 3 June. As a result, The Runaway Train is technically the first Eleventh Doctor audio release, although BBC Audio is treating The Hounds of Artemis as the first in the series.
