Great Continental Railway Journeys

Great Continental Railway Journeys is a British television documentary series presented by Michael Portillo.

He refers to a 1913 copy of Bradshaw's Continental Railway Guide, as he describes how the places he visits have changed since Edwardian times.

After visiting Potsdam, he explores Weimar in central Germany, a city that has twelve buildings on the UNESCO World Heritage list.

His final stop is the industrial city of Stuttgart, where he visits the Porsche factory and learns of the origin of the Volkswagen Beetle.

Great Continental Railway Journeys, written by Michael Portillo, was published by Simon & Schuster UK in October 2015.
