Description
Andrew Martin explores why Britain's passion for old railways endures. He rides heritage lines and meets the preservationists behind them.
The author discovers recurring themes, including the enduring appeal of Thomas the Tank Engine, the impact of Dr Beeching's railway axeman, and the challenge of preserving steam locomotives as generations pass.
