British Rail was a success. It carried millions of commuters to and from their jobs every day; organised its trunk route services to yield a profit under the brand name 'Inter-City'; pioneered world-beating research and technological development through its own research centre and engineering subsidiary. It transformed the railway system of Britain from a postwar state of collapse into a modern, technologically advanced railway. This is the story of how all that was achieved, seen from a passenger's perspective.
