For many people train travel is just a necessity,a quick and efficient means of transport that tends to be taken for granted,until it goes wrong.Yet,a train journey can be so much more,bringing together history,landscape and the particular but ever-changing view of Britain through the carriage window.
Much of the network in use today,and its infrastructure,is a legacy of the 19thC, built by Victorian entrepreneurs and engineers,and you can explore these wonderful railway journeys all over Britain's national railway network.
Paul Atterbury shares a wealth of memories and stories about the many railway journeys he has taken in Britain, encouraging you to explore the wonderful railway journeys that are still there to be enjoyed all over Britain's national railway network.
The routes selected are particular favourites from the National Network,with a special combination of landscape,history and visual pleasure.They range from short, but classic,branch lines to long-distance routes that explore the best of Britain's countryside to link interesting cities, towns and villages.The journeys are arranged regionally,from the far west of Cornwall to the Highlands of Scotland.They also represent the full history of Britain's railways from the 1850s to the early years of the 20thC.
Since April 2013,again in March 2015,and in this year too,the UK Post Office has altered it's Pricing in Proportion template,altering it's prices,weight allowances,dimensions and lowered it's qualifying compensation rates too!
