Prepares to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the worlds first passenger railway, ive decided to only use trains made here. Horn honks along the way, ill cross some stunning landscapes and meet people whose lives have been transformed by the great British Railway. Horn blows i wanted to bring us down this slimyjetty here cos i wanted to show off portsmouth harbour station. As you come in, you feel like youre on land, but actually, its an old pier, and this used to function as a Freight Boat Pier in the mid 1800s. Im starting my Rail Adventure on englands southern coastline, passing through london, the midlands, into the yorkshire dales, then crossing scotland, up through the highlands, and hopefully making it to thurso, the most northerly Railway Station in the uk.

I as luck would have it, i happened to be wearing the specific badge to the train were trave

Up through the highlands, and hopefully making it to thurso, the most northerly Railway Station in the uk. Sometimes find Hermit Crabs. There isnt a Hermit Crab in this one, though. Tannoy please buy a ticket before getting onto a train. I as luck would have it, i happened to be wearing the specific badge to the train were travelling on 166210. I actually used to get this train to see my parents when i used to live in portsmouth. So, yeah, im really excited. And all the better doing it on br rolling stock, too. Essentially, that means trains made in the uk in the era of British Rail up to the mid 90s, before the network was privatised. Tickets, please. Hiya. Hello. Ta. Thank you. This country invented the railway, and, once, we used to design and Build Locomotives that were sent across the world, slashing Journey Times between great cities.

Superstar lulu joins us to talk about returning to the stage. Hello and welcome. For years, Andrew Cuomo successfully navigated the murky waters of new York Politics amassing power with precision, leaving his opponents trailing in his wake. But it took just a week for the governor to find himself out of moves following the publication of a report by the new York Attorney general s Office which claimed that Mr Cuomo had sexually harassed 11 women. He denied the accusations, but that wasnt enough to save him. The democrat faced a Growing Cacophony of voices from within his own Party to resign since then and today, he succumbed to those calls.

But we are going to begin with the latest on charlottesville. We are there removing those confederate relics. Its been a Long Time Coming you might say according to the Charlottesville City councilman michael payne. The statues were at the center of the rallies that took place four years ago or in 2017 and of course resulted in the death and the injuries of many people there in charlottesville.

We were told that the removal will happen sometime within our hours and of course now were starting to see some heavy equipment pulling through into the downtown area. Its actually two different monuments that will be removed, lindsey, one of them is of robert e. Lee thats been there nearly 100 years, the other one is of Stonewall Jackson. And this was all approved by the City Council and was fought all the way up to the supreme court. That is why this is happening today. We are going to bring in right now Council M
