NARRATOR: GREAT BRITAIN, HOME OF THE TOM BAKER VOICE OVER AND THE LAST BASTION OF THE CLASS SYSTEM. IT WASN'T ALWAYS LIKE THIS ONCE THE CLASS SYSTEM WAS THE ROCK OF THE EMPIRE. YOU COULD NOT CROSS THE DIVIDES. THEN THE ROMANS LEFT AND IT TOOK NEARLY 1500 YEARS TO GET THE SYSTEM BACK ON TRACK. JUST AS IT LOOKED LIKE THINGS COULDN'T GET ANY WORSE ALONG CAME THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION AND THE DIVIDE EXPANDED.
NARRATOR: GOLDEN GOOSE OF THE REVOLUTION WAS THE RAILWAY SYSTEM WHICH WAS DIVIDED INTO DIFFERENT REGIONS.
NARRATOR: THE CONCEPT OF TRAVELLING CROSS COUNTRY WAS SUDDENLY A VIABLE ADVENTURE. THE WORLD WAS OPENING IT'S DOORS TO TOURISTS AND VISITORS
NARRATOR: SO IN COMPETITION WERE THESE REGIONS THAT THEY DIDN'T EVEN BUILD THE SAME GAUGE TRACK. YOU HAD TO LITERALLY CHANGE TRAINS AT THE STATIONS ON THE REGION BOUNDARIES
NARRATOR: EVENTUALLY SENSE WON THE DAY AND THE GOVERNMENT BROUGHT TIT ALL UNDER IT'S UMBRELLA, PUBLIC TRANSPORT FOR THE MASSES
NARRATOR: THERE WAS THEN A HUGE PUNNING CEREMONY WHICH RELEASED MANY LINES TO BE CONVERTED INTO CYCLE PATHS
NARRATOR: THEN IT WAS SPLIT OFF AGAIN TO GORGE MORE CATS THEN THE TALK WAS OF REUNITING IT, BY THIS TIME THE PUBLIC WAS FULL OF NOSTALGIA FOR THE SLAM DOOR STOCK
