Right, well it is high time we had another proper live #RailNatter like the olden days, so your wish is my command…

I’m back in the chair this week to talk about the Great Central Railway, why it was brilliant, why that doesn’t make it some form of panacea today, and to talk about how engineers choose between reusing existing alignments versus creating new ones.

Join LIVE on Wednesday at 7pm!
