Railway Walks – Episode 05: The Durham Coastal Railway
Synopsis:
In this installment, Julia Bradbury walks the route of the Durham Coastal Railway, once a critical link in England’s coal industry. From Seaham to Sunderland, the trail traces a landscape molded by heavy industry and the power of the sea. Majestic cliffs, abandoned collieries, and panoramic shorelines frame a story of resilience and labor. The remnants of sidings and silent signal boxes serve as poignant reminders of a once-thriving railway culture built on coal, steam, and grit.

Railway Walks – Episode 06: The Speyside Line
Synopsis:
Julia heads into the Scottish Highlands to rediscover the Speyside Line, a route once vital for transporting whisky across the country. Beginning near Craigellachie and stretching toward the Cairngorm Mountains, the path uncovers a legacy where remote villages and distilleries were united by rail. Meandering through glens, alongside rivers, and past overgrown platforms, Julia uncovers a narrative rich in heritage and Highland spirit. A walk where echoes of steam meet the timeless pulse of Scotland’s whisky trail.
