Modern Railways Magazine Train Traveller Special Issue

Unless you are a commuter, travelling by train is one of life’s great pleasures, enjoyed by people of all ages. The train is inextricably linked with the development of the modern world and is arguably the most civilised form of transport on earth.

Train Traveller has been produced by the team behind Modern Railways and is dedicated to narrating and illustrating the exciting experiences and opportunities to be discovered in the world of rail travel.

Whether it’s moments of nostalgia on a historic steam-hauled service, the novelty of riding one of the many narrow gauge railways, taking in the breathtaking scenery of say, the Canadian Rockies, the thrill of hurtling through the countryside on one of the latest high-speed trains, or simply whiling away the time on a luxury cruise service - no other form of transport delivers such a wide choice of life enhancing experiences.

The title was originally published in 2020, in the very week the first COVID-19 lockdown was announced, and that meant few people actually saw the title on bookshelves, let alone buy it. But the publishers have taken the view that it’s too good to miss and this lightly updated edition is again widely available. Enjoy!
