ENGLAND’S

CATHEDRALS BY TRAIN

DISCOVER HOW THE NORMANS AND VICTORIANS

HELPED TO SHAPE OUR LIVES

MURRAY NAYLOR

FOREWORD BY LORD HOPE

One of the jewels in the nation’s crown is its Anglican cathedrals. Many, constructed

after the invasion of 1066, stand as monuments to the determination and

commitment of their Norman builders. Others have been built in later centuries while

some started life as parish churches and were subsequently raised to cathedral

status. Places of wonder and beauty, they symbolize the Christian life of the nation

and are more visited today than ever as places which represent England’s religious

creed, heritage and the skills of their builders.

Eight hundred years later came the Victorians who pioneered the Industrial Revolution

and created railways. Like their Norman predecessors they built to last and the railway

system bequeathed to later generations, has endured in much the same form as when

originally constructed. There is little sign that railways will be displaced by other

modes of transport, at least in the foreseeable future.

Combining a study of thirty-three English cathedrals and the railway systems which

allow them to be reached, the author seeks to celebrate these two magnificent

institutions. In the process he hopes to encourage others to travel the same journeys he himself has undertaken
