Interesting to see the focus of this new series, 5 episodes in the Balkans and 5 in Scandinavia. Both regions are somewhat less well travelled by us Brits, should be worth watching.

At my heritage railway Scandinavia is a very popular destination, just about number one.

Should be quite interesting. I enjoyed seeing him in Sweden going to Upsala and going on that steam railway etc. I'm interested to see about Denmark in particular as well (outside of Copenhagen). Presumably Odense will be mainly about the railway museum.

Be interesting to see the journeys listed but also what countries the following ten episodes will feature after the ten mentioned in the link.

(The series is of 20 episodes, so presumably four 'trips' in all.)
