By chance I happened to record this programme, shown on BBC4 last
(Monday) night at 10p.m. This was part of the John Betjemann
celebrations and was a programme featuring him, telling the story of
the Metropolitan Railway and its development of "Metro-Land"
It started with a cab view of a speeded-up run from Baker Street to
Chesham, and had lots of items of railway interest in it. He ended up
at Quainton Road, regretting that he could no longer get to Verney
Junction.
If it is repeated sometime, it is well worth watching.

Thoroughly recommended. I have had the VHS tape for at fifteen years.
It is one of my favorites. I believe it is now out on DVD.
