About

All The Stations is an on-line video series of adventures and travel on railways in Great Britain and Ireland, led by Vicki Pipe and Geoff Marshall.

The original All The Stations voyage took place during the summer of 2017, and saw Vicki and Geoff travel to all 2,563 railway stations in Great Britain. The 59 videos from this expedition have so far accumulated over 5 million views on YouTube. A book about the journey, The Railway Adventures, later became an Amazon best-seller.

In spring 2019, Vicki and Geoff took the project international and travelled to all 198 stations in Ireland and Northern Ireland, as well as visiting all 86 stations along the railways of the Isle Of Man.

All The Stations videos explore the communities connected to the lines, and feature interviews with local people and those who work on the railways, to find out about their experiences of travelling by train.

Crowd Funding

All The Stations was made possible through the generous support of Kickstarter donations. The team would like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who gave so generously to make All The Stations a reality.

Rules

When watching All The Stations you should understand the rules of the project. The following rules helped to define the journey, and determined the routes that were followed along the way.

What counts as having visited each station?

  1. At each station we had to either arrive or leave on a scheduled train that was timetabled to stop. Fast trains that passed through did not count.
  2. We did not have to leave the train at every station, but we did get off at some of the most interesting stations to capture footage of the surrounding areas.
  3. In England, Wales and Scotland request stops had a special rule. As long as the train we were on was able to stop, if requested, then we could count it as having been visited (even if no one actually got off).
  4. Ireland had no request stops, so there were no special rules to deal with them!
  5. It was not a race. All The Stations was a team effort to cover all the stations, with cameras rolling.

What’s Next

Since 2017, Geoff and Vicki have enjoyed travelling the UK and Ireland as All The Stations and sharing their many journeys with followers and supporters along the way.

In a change to your scheduled services, we would now like to share the news that Geoff and Vicki will no longer be taking any future journeys together. Not all passengers reach the same destination, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t enjoy their time together along the way.

All The Stations’ content will continue to be hosted and shared online via the website, social media and YouTube as before. Our hope is new and existing followers will continue to enjoy the content we so enjoyed creating.

As All The Stations makes this new transition, we’d like to thank you for all your support, kindness and generosity, and hope you will be as keen to discover more about our future work as individuals as you have been about our projects together.

To the Trains!
Geoff and Vicki
