Thanks. I will check those out. At first glance they look either rare or expensive! In fact, there doesn't seem to be much media about Pakistani railways at all - books, magazine articles or DVDs etc. I guess that very few Western enthusiasts have visited Pakistan in recent years - as opposed to...
Does anyone know if there are any books on Pakistani Railways? I've had a trawl through amazon and other places and I can't really find anything. Obviously, there are plenty of books on Indian Railways, including before Partition, but I can't see any titles that specifically relate to Pakistan.
I enjoyed the latest episode on Romania (more about trains in this one!) but, according to my printed TV guide, the programme is not listed for this coming Friday - and, unless it gets moved to another slot, won't be for quite a few more weeks!
I enjoyed last night's episode due to my love of Italy and my fascination with volcanoes. However, I fully accept that it had very little to do with railways! It would be interesting to tot up all the train sequences and see what percentage of the overall programme that represented. Not very...

I've had a quick look on ebay and you're definitely right about September 2001. Not so sure about August (going by the cover, that is). I'll wait for your opinion on how good they are! Thanks.
