Michael Portillos 200 Years of Railways [DVD]
As Britain marks the 200th anniversary of the first steam hauled public railway, Michael Portillo embarks on a sweeping two part journey through rail history.
In The Day That Changed the World, he travels along the original 1825 Stockton and Darlington Railway route — the birth of modern rail — examining how a humble steam engine set in motion a transport revolution. In How the Railways Changed Britain, he follows the world’s first intercity line, between Liverpool and Manchester, exploring how the railway reshaped industry, society and mobility across the nation.
Blending historical insight with evocative locations and personal narrative, the documentary traces railways’ dramatic impact — from coal and cotton to commuters and cultural change — and looks to what the next 200 years might bring.
