The train sliding out of the station can take you back into the past

The sunshine may be the late-afternoon glow on a freight train between LA & Seattle or the sea light bathing the Cornish coast alongside the branch line to St Ives. The adventure may even be dodging death on the train itself as Dervla Murphy does on the antiquated rolling stock of Cuba. Sometimes too the train tracks peoples lives on a journey into their deepest secrets. Nicholas Shakespeare travelling around France pieces together the story of what happened to his aunt who was stranded there on the brink of war in 1937. Pamela Petro rattling down the Pacific coast of the US confronts the demons that have been haunting her since a train crash a quarter of a century ago.
