This revelation came to me when the song was in the charts, I worked 12-hour shifts and the local radio station was apparently playing it every hour 24/7. My reasoning ran something like this:
* The chorus has a train-like rhythm, "pro-mise-to-me pro-mise-to-me / pro-mise-to-me pro-mise-to-me".
* In Morse code, this is .... / .... / .... / .... (H H H H).
* HHH in World War I era radio signals means "halt".
* The rhythm and the Morse code translation suggest a train moving forward but halting as well. Reversing?
* Where on the rail network, apart from the end of a line, does every incoming train reverse to leave?
* Castleford.
Therefore, "The Promise" has a hidden message related to Castleford. Buggered if I know what that message is though.

Or Ridings FM needed to buy a few more records.
Or I needed to find a job somewhere so noisy that you could hardly hear the music.
