Ticket to Ride

This Driver’s eye view follows two branch lines, the Exmouth Branch and the Barnstaple branch. We travel over both lines on one service, formed of a class 143 Pacer. The branch from Exmouth to Exeter hugs the shore of the wide River Exe estuary for the start of its 9 miles to Exmouth Junction, where it joins with the former LSWR main line from Waterloo through Exeter Central. At Exeter St Davids, this limited stop service heads over the Barnstaple branch. The single line runs for 37¾ miles, the first section through Crediton being over the former LSWR main line into Plymouth and North Cornwall. Here we pass the down train. At Eggesford another train is passed and we follow the token exchange procedure from the signal box at Crediton. Our train continues through the scenic Devonshire countryside to Barnstaple in glorious summer sunshine.

Madame Tutli-Putli boards the Night Train, weighed down with all her earthly possessions and the ghosts of her past. She travels alone, facing both the kindness and menace of strangers. As day descends into dark, she finds herself caught up in a desperate metaphysical adventure.

Following a winding 96 km route, the Vouga line emerged in 1908 with the promise of boosting the region's economic development. 100 years later, the "Vale das Voltas Line" has lost most of its former magic. Currently, it is the last Brazilian narrow-gauge railway line. We embark on a journey from the past to the present, where, little by little, the Vouguinha is being reborn. Driven by tourism, steam power, and the strengthening of the train's role in sustainable mobility, what will be the next stop?

Lamenti Siderali

One of the least well-known areas of Britain, we travel to the Cumbrian Coast by means of two different trains. Firstly, we board a North West Regional Railways Express (class 156) which traverses the former Furness Railway via Grange-over-Sands and Ulvertston to Barrow-in-Furness. There we change to a class 153 for the most scenic section of the route along the coast from Bootle to Maryport, filmed in what can only be described as 100% perfect weather - not a cloud in the sky! Apparently you only get one day a year like that along the coast and we were there! As signalling expert David Allen says in his script; "this line is a mecca for semaphore signalling enthusiasts". Filmed in 1997.
