To the Sea by Train: The Golden Age of Railway Travel [Audiobook] - nieriorefasow63 - 08-11-2025 ![]() To the Sea by Train: The Golden Age of Railway Travel [Audiobook] English | ASIN: B0F9LLC5D4 | 2025 | 8 hours and 50 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 242 MB Throughout the 20th century, the seaside service posters of Britain's railways promised fresh air and frivolity to millions of urban dwellers with the phrase: 'To the sea by train'. A staple of modern British life, the seaside getaway was intertwined with the train, in whose compartments holidaymakers were shunted from smog-choked cities to sandy coves. With his signature wit and anecdotal style, Andrew Martin captures an era defined by its railways: from the development of Brighton and Scarborough into pleasure resorts, and the introduction of bank holidays and two-day weekends, to the advent of cheap flights and the British coast's subsequent decline. Humorous and evocative, To the Sea by Train takes a charming tour through Britain's most beloved pastime. DOWNLOAD |
