Following the huge success of Wainwright Walks, Julia Bradbury once again dons her walking boots. This time she explores lost railway lines in the UK, many of which have become the legacy of The Beeching Axe. In the 1960s thousands of railway stations were closed. Many of these old branch lines, and the spectacular scenery they pass through, are now treasured by ramblers all over Britain. Providing hours of beautiful walks steeped in history and offering insight into industrial Britain, Julia looks at how the rise and fall of the railway has altered the lives of communities across the country.
