Why did the railway children write to the old gentle man?
Ans: The children wrote to the old gentleman because they wanted him to help them buy the list of things which the doctor had given as they can't afford to buy them, but promise him that they would pay him back in future when they grow up and start to earn.
They wanted to buy things for their mother.
