With Bradshaw's 1913 Continental Railway Guide in hand, Michael Portillo
penetrates the eastern extreme of Europe to journey through the vast country of
Russia.
Among the golden onion domes and icons of Tula, Michael is moved by the sound
of a Russian Orthodox choir. He visits the beautiful country estate of Yasnaya
Polyana, where Tolstoy wrote his masterpieces and learns how the author's life
and works were inextricably entwined with the railways.
Striking north, Michael boards the long distance train which runs from the
Caspian Sea to the capital. He learns from the buffet car cooks how to prepare
a supper of meat-filled dumplings - Dagestani specialities called pylmeni.
At Belorussky station in Moscow, Michael hears how thousands of Russians
journeyed to the capital in 1913 to mark the Romanov royal family's
tercentenary year. At the Bolshoi Theatre, Michael performs an important role
in one of Russia's most dramatic operas. A relaxing soak at the famous Sanduny
Baths, however, proves anything but...
Aboard the high speed Sapsan to St Petersburg, Michael discovers the history
behind the line, once the longest double-tracked railway in the world. From the
Grand Hotel, Europe, advertised in his Bradshaw's, Michael explores the beauty
and history of St Petersburg, from the great Nevsky Prospekt to the magnificent
Winter Palace with its Hermitage Museum, then rides the first railway ever
built in Russia between the city and the Tsar's village - Tsarskoye Selo.
Back in the city again, Michael meets former Russia correspondent, Martin
Sixsmith, to discover how the strikes, mutinies and massacres, which took place
shortly before Bradshaw's 1913 guidebook was published, were to unfold and the
part the railways were to play in those tumultuous events.
