Here is this week's #RailNatter... In Episode 5 we are talking about BEER and everything Dr David Turner and I can think of that connects this fine drink with the railways!
We cover the complex relationship between supply chains and railways, hint at why Beeching wasn't the baddie everyone says he is (oooooh), talk about Burton quite a lot, and imbibe a few ales in the process!
