''Raped on the Railway: a True Story of a Lady who was first ravished and then flagellated on the Scotch Express'' is an anonymous English pornographic story published in 1894〔Lee Grieveson, Peter Krämer, ''The Silent Cinema Reader'', Routledge, 2004, ISBN 0-415-25284-9, p. 59〕〔Ronald Pearsall (1969) ''The Worm in the Bud: the world of Victorian sexuality'', Macmillan; pp. 321, 364〕〔Peter Mendes, "Clandestine erotic fiction in English, 1800-1930: a bibliographical study", Scolar Press, 1993, ISBN 0-85967-919-5, p. 319〕〔Alan Norman Bold, "The Sexual Dimension in Literature", Vision Press, 1983, ISBN 0-389-20314-9, pp.94,97,102〕〔Claire Preston, ''A dictionary of literary terms and literary theory'', Wiley-Blackwell, 1998, ISBN 0-631-20271-4, p.688〕 by Charles Carrington〔Rachel Potter, "Obscene Modernism and the Trade in Salacious Books", ''Modernism/modernity'', vol.16, no.1 (January 2009) pp.87-104 ()〕 under the imprint "Society of Bibliophiles"〔Peter Webb, ''The erotic arts'', Secker & Warburg, 1975, p.200〕 or "Cosmopolitan Bibliophile Society".〔Harald Leupold-Löwenthal, ''Ein unmöglicher Beruf: über die schöne Kunst, ein Analytiker zu sein Arbeiten zur Psychoanalyse'', Böhlau Verlag Wien, 1997, ISBN 3-205-98412-9, p.153〕 The victim, a married woman, is raped by a stranger in a locked railway compartment and, in a trope common in later Victorian pornography,〔 is depicted as ultimately taking pleasure in the act:〔〔Mark Bracher, ''Lacan, discourse, and social change: a psychoanalytic cultural criticism'', Cornell University Press, 1993, ISBN 0-8014-8063-9, pp.86-87〕 she is then flagellated by her brother-in-law for the latter transgression.〔〔Patricia J. Anderson, ''When passion reigned: sex and the Victorians'', BasicBooks, 1995, ISBN 0-465-08991-7, pp.99-106〕
According to Ronald Pearsall the story reflects the novel sexual opportunities afforded by railway travel in Victorian England, focused on the erotic opportunities of a male passenger in a railway carriage, who, unusually for the period, finds himself alone with an unchaperoned woman, and the sexual perils of the lady in question who cannot escape from his attentions or summon help from a closed carriage (corridors between carriages being a later innovation). The passage of the train through dark tunnels adds another frisson to the possibility of erotic adventure on the rails.〔Ronald Pearsall (1971) ''The Worm in the Bud: the world of Victorian sexuality'', Penguin; p. 396〕
The plot may also have been inspired by the real-life case of Colonel Valentine Baker, who was convicted of an indecent assault on a young woman in a railway carriage in 1875.〔Matthew Sweet, ''Inventing the Victorians'', Faber and Faber, 2001, ISBN 978-0-571-20663-6 page 216〕
