Clearly designed to be as accessible as possible, this story offers few clues as to its placement. We have placed it between Victory of the Daleks and The Time of Angels, and after the first two eleventh Doctor novels, as this is the only gap in Series 5’s tight continuity which sees the Doctor and Amy travelling without either Rory in tow or the spectre of his non-memory looming large; it was first released (with 24th April 2010s copy of The Daily Telegraph) between the broadcast of these two episodes, and after the publication of the aforementioned novels; and the third eleventh Doctor novel, The Forgotten Army, appears to lead directly into The Time of Angels, so The Runaway Train must come first.
