United Kingdoma year ago A great way to keep up-to-date with current events on the UK and International railways, whilst also taking excursions into railway history.
Originally created as a live stream video with maps, photos, etc. but I prefer to listen to the podcast whilst doing other activities; sometimes involving railways.
Podcast Addict52 years agoBen Coulson- Excellent rail nerd chat
Very concise and interesting about all things railway related.
Apple Podcasts5CalzbergiUnited Kingdom3 years ago - Very enjoyable nerdy chat
I really like listening to Gareth and guests natter (and sometimes discuss in depth) about trains and public transport. I’ve learned a lot from the podcast. I’m really glad he goes to the extra bother of audio-only since I don’t get time to watch videos very often. I’m also really happy he’s trans-inclusive.
Apple Podcasts5PertusariaUnited Kingdom3 years ago - A great and insightful show
This is a great show with a great community around it! So many knowledgeable and friendly people contribute to this show and bring it to life.
Gareth’s an industry insider and has insights into things that don’t usually make the public media outside the industry’s circles.
Well worth listening to for that.
