from Calling All Stations - The Transport Podcast · host Christian Wolmar & Cogitamus Ltd

Our launch episode for Season 4 includes interviews with Andrew Gilligan on why he believes the money sought for Northern Powerhouse Rail could be better invested in other railway enhancements for the North of England [3:02] and with Graeme Bickerdike who is campaigning to save the disused Queensbury rail tunnel in Yorkshire as a cycling commuter and tourism route [28:56].  Christian also asks why the British Transport Police has advertised how easy it is to steal a bike [54:12].
