Railway expert and train enthusiast Tim Dunn explores the stunning architecture that lines the railway network in `The Architecture the Railways Built'. He visits stations made up of simple stone buildings, decorative Victorian grandeur, and striking glass and concrete structures, but he doesn't stop at visiting stations, as he explores every structure which owes its existence to the railway, including viaducts, railway hotels, tunnels, and the less obvious buildings such as homes, swimming pools, and Turkish baths.
In the fourth series, Tim also explores the history of railway design with special access to the Network Rail archives – the first time this repository of railway history has been featured on TV – and the archives of the National Railway Museum, a treasure trove full of architects’ plans, drawings and rare artefacts, containing the untold histories of railway buildings.
