First transmitted in 1972, Ian Nairn travels by rail to complete his series of journeys, contemplating the mix of architectural triumphs and calamities as he passes dramatic landscapes and deserted stations on the way to Edinburgh.

The final journey follows the railway out of Leeds on the Settle-Carlisle rail link. Nairn branches off along the now abandoned rail route to Edinburgh to look at areas that may well have had their lifeline severed.
