Amazing 73-mile UK railway where locomotives pass through stunning countryside Marvel at Britain's untouched countryside with this epic train journey that's been branded one of the 'most scenic' in Europe.
Construction of the now iconic landmark (which you can get a better view if you get off the train and explore around) reportedly caused such a loss of life the railway actually paid for an 'expansion of the local graveyard'.
Featuring a whopping 20 viaducts, 14 tunnels, and a breathtaking vista that comes out rain or shine - the Settle to Carlisle Railway attracts visitors from around the globe, and it's easy to see why.
Many people mistake Ribblehead Viaduct as the one featured in the Harry Potter films, but this is actually Glenfinnan Viaduct up in Scotland.
The 73-mile journey takes around one hour and 40 minutes to complete and starts off in the vibrant market town of Settle in the Yorkshire Dales.
