His book How Railways will Fix the Future: the Essential Brilliance of the Iron Road (Repeater, 2024) shows how railways are key to the fight for equality and a just transition. In this edition of Lort Burn Specials he will be talking to us about trains, politics, and how to build a better future by riding the rails.
