See http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=3710.0 and  http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=3744.0


(Edit note: This post has been edited to correct the date - originally, it was suggested that the programme would be repeated on Sunday 30 Nov - hence subsequent confusion!)  Chris  Roll Eyes

William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament, or Mile Post (a method of measuring the railway in miles and chains from a starting point - usually London), depending on context) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: Stop, Look, Listen.

Hmm.  Thanks for that, SDA.  I agree - I can't find it on the BBC» (British Broadcasting Corporation - home page) site either, now.

I'll send them another e-mail!  Roll Eyes

Worse still, according to (the usually very reliable) Digiguide it's not showing anywhere across the network at any time in the next 6 weeks....

Ah, yes I've found it now. It's not called 'Down the Line' but 'Beeching's Tracks' - others in the series are being shown on 4th, 11th and 18th December as well.
