Ulverston to Ravenglass

Michael Portillo is in Cumbria, enjoying one of the most spectacular coastal railway journeys in Britain.
In Ulverston, he sets sail in a small craft with a lifelong devotee of Arthur Ransome's Swallows and Amazons. At Barrow-in-Furness, Michael investigates the mountains of scrap left behind as iron ore was turned into ships, trains and railway tracks.
From Silecroft, Michael hikes up Black Combe to join a champion endurance athlete as she navigates and runs across the fells. Pressing north, he reaches the delightful Ravenglass and Eskdale heritage railway.
