Scotland Coast to Coast (2022)
Our Scottish rail journey starts in Kyle of Lochalsh, a tiny fishing village on the far west coast and takes us east across the breathtaking Highlands.
Pacific Surfliner (2022)
Pulled by a gleaming Siemens Charger locomotive, our double-decked coaches will take us on a 350-mile trip into the Californian dream. On our way we'll stop off in Carlsbad.
The Peak District (2022)
A trip through the Peak District at full steam, pulled by the Royal Scot, one of the finest locomotives ever built. On the way from Crewe to York, the train travels over Chat Moss on a line built by Robert Stephenson, which once served the famous Rocket.
Portugal (2022)
The latest train excursion includes a trip to Portugal's Quinta de Vargellas, a vineyard that has been making port for centuries. Cameras also focus on the seaside city of Aveiro, and there's a trip to Lisbon to visit the home of the regional custard tart.
Italy (2022)
This week, we're celebrating Italy and following the Neapolitan Line. Travelling west from the gelato shops of the seaside town of Pescara, we cross Italy through the remote and wild Apennine Mountains down to the hustling city of Naples on the west coast. Our journey ends on-board the royal carriages preserved in the old locomotive works of Pietrarsa.
