The story
What it's about
Comedian Joe Wilkinson is joined by a host of celebrities as they travel the country by train.
What do you get when you combine Joe Wilkinson, his love of trains and famous faces that he admires? A sort of train based podcast thing… that’s kind of it, really. With Joe’s love of train travel and all things “behind the scenes”, he’s gatecrashing the real train journeys of people he admires and going along for (their) ride.
