Others less so: the train from Inverness to -Wick and Thurso traverses some of the wildest country in Britain; or the coast-to-coast journey through the chestnut- and pine-clad mountains of Corsica, crossing one of Gustave Eiffel's glorious viaducts of gossamer steel.  From the modest line through North Yorkshire's Esk Valley to the Trans-Siberian; from a narrow-gauge web of lines in the Harz Mountains to the train that crosses Australia's barren Nullarbor Plain in a dead-straight 478km, Lambert's is an unmissable selection for any lover of travel that is as delightful as the destination.","brand":"Book Grocer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48192591528090,"sku":"9781785780653","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0558\/1625\/7690\/files\/9781785780653-us-300.jpg?v=1780460239","url":"https:\/\/castlebooks.com.au\/products\/9781785780653-the-50-greatest-train-journeys-of-the-world","provider":"Castlebooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
