Re: [Swprograms] BBC program Locomotion



Well and truly impressive. One of the experiences one wishes they could know
first-hand. I'm dying to know that tune was they kept playing.

Subject: [Swprograms] BBC program Locomotion

CBC Radio One show Spotlight (one of two shows with that name...) played a 
BBC show called Locomotion last night, about a train trip across India, and 
it was spectacular.  Certainly the best show I have heard in a while. 

I have not tried the listen again feature, but it looks like it can be 
accessed from this URL: 

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/factual/indianlocomotion.shtml 

from the website: 

Sir Mark Tully follows in the wake of the legendary Raj train, the Imperial 
Indian Mail.

On a unique 2000 kilometre journey from Bombay to Calcutta, Sir Mark Tully 
celebrates the 150th anniversary of Indian Railways with the drivers, 
caterers, ticket collectors, attendants and a thousand fellow travellers 
taking a modern trip in the shadow of the Imperial Indian Mail.
