#RailNatter Episode 95: Xmas holidays by rail, Edwardian-style

#RailNatter Episode 95: Xmas holidays by rail, Edwardian-style

2022-01-05

Well, straight off the bat dear friend of the show Dr David Turner and I talk about quite a bit of the Victorian period too, so this title doesn't make much sense.

In any case, David joins the third of this year's #RailNatter holiday specials with a bundle of historic delights under his arm that we spread across a table and pore over in no particular order.

What did Christmas look like on Britain's railways in decades and centuries gone by? How did the railways respond to passenger demand over the festive season? Where did we get our trees from? All questions we'll ponder with the aid of the archives!
