In Night Trains, Andrew Martin attempts to relive the golden age of the great European sleeper trains by using their modern-day equivalents. This is no simple matter.

The night trains have fallen on hard times, and the services are disappearing. Whether the backdrop is three a.m. at a Turkish customs post, the sun rising over the Riviera or the constant twilight of a Norwegian summer night, Martin rediscovers the pleasures of a continent connected by rail. By tracing the history of the sleeper trains, he reveals much of the recent history of Europe.

Against this tumultuous backdrop, he experiences his own smaller dramas as he ponders the mystery of the compartment dog and becomes embroiled in his very own night train whodunit.

Everything I hoped for and more. A delight that I would recommend to anyone. Charming, nostalgic, witty and brilliantly observed.

Wonderful

This was so different. not just the usual ‘people I met when I was travelling’ sort of book, but masses of interesting thoughts sparked from the actual journey as well as things that happened along the way. A real treat.

The ideal bedtime listen. Interesting, relaxing and very sleep inducing. Also unexpectedly amusing! I learnt about the author/narrator through the calm app. About to download another of his books...

Relaxing and informative

Well researched and of great interest, however the narrator is far too monotone. Sounds like it’s being read from an autocue.

Tone
