Product Details

Armed with his Victorian copy of Bradshaw's Railway Handbook, Michael Portillo takes to the tracks, travelling from coast to coast to discover what of Bradshaw's Britain remains. Passionate about trains, Michael Portillo charts the great British romance with the railways in this phenomenally successful series. Armed with his copy of George Bradshaw's famous railway handbook, he retraces seventeen journeys that were first documented in the Victorian guide (and an additional two from its Irish companion!), witnessing what's changed and discovering how our love of the railways began. Throughout, he makes stops at some of Britain's most beautiful cities and secluded villages, meeting extraordinary people and hearing how their lives have been shaped by the railways. This 19-disc set comprises the complete series 1-4.
