A heads-up. The first episode is on Channel 5 this Friday (December 16th) at 20.00:


Episode 1:
The presenter embarks on a railway journey across the extraordinary landscapes of Peru to magical Machu Picchu. Starting at Puno on Lake Titicaca, Nick's journey takes him to the highest point on this railway line (and the fourth highest train station in the world) at La Reya.

Thanks for the heads up, channel 5 do have a habit of showing one/two episodes of a series only for it to have a multiple week gap before the next episode.

Interestingly, this is now being advertised as Season 2 Episode 1 - which means that last year's one programme (on Peru) was Season 1!


In Mexico, Nick travels from Los Mochis in Sinaloa to Creel in Chihuahua, witnessing astonishing feats of railway engineering and breathtaking landscapes.
