All The Stations was a project set up by Vicki Pipe and Geoff Marshall to travel to ALL the national railway stations in Britain over the spring and summer of 2017, and to create an online documentary film about the journey.
Geoff and Vicki visited Pilning on June 24th as part of the West Country leg of their EPIC journey.

To accompany the videos, and to give a much more in-depth insight into their travels, Geoff and Vicki wrote a book – The Railway Adventures: The Places, Trains, People and Stations.
Pilning is proud to be the subject of a three-page spread, recognising ‘The Campaigners’ that the pair met along their travels.
Olga is an inspiration. Committed, enthusiastic, determined, creative and passionate.

Continuing, the book documents Pilning Station Group’s tireless efforts to raise awareness (and passenger numbers!), and of course the station’s current situation in relation to its footbridge and other passenger amenities.
Through Olga and the group’s tenacity the awareness of Pilning’s plight continues to grow.

The Railway Adventures: The Places, Trains, People and Stations can be bought from September Publishing, Amazon and in many good book stores.
