Along Ancient Tracks (2023)
Discover the hidden treasures of Europe's old railway routes in this captivating documentary series. Embark on a mesmerizing journey through the picturesque landscapes of Romania, Bulgaria, Albania, Slovenia and Sicily's Mount Etna, as we delve into the rich history of these ancient train tracks and meet the people whose lives are intricately intertwined with these railway lines. Vintage trains have traversed these remote regions for decades, winding their way through rugged mountains, quaint villages, and untouched wilderness. More than once, they were on the verge of closure, but the local population keeps campaigning for their preservation.

You can't reach Albania by train - and once you're on board, you begin to understand why its railways have so often faced closure. Yet these former Soviet wagons, creaking through remote stops like Rrogozhine and Peqin, still carry a quiet magic. Glittering lakes, vast coastlines, and lush mountain valleys unfold at just 40 km/h, as we travel Albania's last surviving lines and gathers the stories of those who depend on them.

Albania's small, single-track railway network has long teetered on the brink of extinction - its trains too slow, too old, and too adventurous for the modern world. Yet they're still running, winding past glittering lakes, sweeping coastlines, and green mountain valleys, stopping at wonderfully remote stations along the way. We travel Albania's last surviving lines at 40 km per hour, uncovering the people and stories that live alongside the country's remarkable, resilient railways.
