A book of railway journeys, as reported in the UK newspaper 'Daily Telegraph' (the 'Torygraph' to the cognoscenti). Some of the newspaper's political stance comes through in some of the pieces. However, the cover, a glorious Art Deco extravaganza of one of the Milwaukee Road's 'Hiawathas', excuses much.
Last Call for the Dining Car: The Telegraph Book of Great Railway Journeys (Daily Telegraph) by Michael Kerr
Enjoyable armchair travel - a series of short articles about trains, which originally appeared in the Daily Telegraph. For some reason, this collection (and its successor about trains) appealed far more than a sister tome about sea travel.
Good mix of river and sea journey writing - but not as all-round entertaining as its sister volume, of train journeys.
Sunrise on the Southbound Sleeper: More Great Railway Journeys from the Daily Telegraph by Michael Kerr
A clickety clack anthology of railway journeys: inspiring, heart-warming, edgy, informative and relaxing - there is something for everybody, All aboard!
