Episode Description from the Publisher

Christian and co-presenter Mark Walker examine what the ministerial appointments and announcements from the new UK Labour Government led by Prime Minister Andy Burnham MP indicate about the direction for transport policy [1:21].  In a discussion recorded live at London's Owl Bookshop with fellow author Andrew Martin, Christian explores some of the issues covered in his latest book, 'Fast Track: The Extraordinary Story of High-Speed Rail' [20:21].  In his final thought from the departure lounge, Christian suggests that Great British Railways might benefit from a snappier marketing brand [60:05].
