Don't forget Catalan France,some great train journeys missed out by those richer folks in the South East.

I've been a big fan of his "Railway Jouurney" series, including the one last summer which visited Europe. The series currently being shown is a repeat from a couple of years ago, but delightful to see a second time.
The blend of railway facts and the history of the surrounding area makes interesting viewing.
I hope he does some more - especially around Europe of further afield places such as Canada or India, where we had great influence over the building of the railways.

His Railway Journeys are fabulous (he did Worchestershire Sauce this week; one of my personal nectars).
