Synopsis
On the Slow Train is an unashamed tug at the heartstrings, harking back to a time before Dr Beeching chopped the heart out of the British countryside.

On the Slow Train reconnects with that long-missed need to lift our heads from the daily grind and reflect that there are still places in Britain where you can stop and stare.
