In this episode we are delighted to have been made so welcome at the Mornington Tourist Railway, a broad gauge railway in Victoria , Australia, as Mikey Cunningham rides the footplate and chats to Secretary Robert Read.
Regular listeners will know most of us are based in the top left hand corner of Wales and at the same time Mikey was in Melbourne, volunteers from Queensland were working on the Welsh Highland Railway. Producer Laura Raymond catches up with Darrell McCulloch ,Mary Ann Martin, Ben Gardener and Chris Banks who are involved with the Mary Valley Rattler back home.
Sharon Gregory visits her favourite London Undeground Stations - designed by architect Leslie Green.
Ffestiniog Railway Volunteer Carol Younger tells us about her new life in 'Scarlets' as a Chelsea Pensioner – a prestigious army veteran role in the UK !
Alasdair Stewart goes to a wonderfully restored art deco railway station in Sussex ahead of the summer open days to meet the friends of Bishopstone Station. It is one of the only stations with gun emplacements in the UK!
