Trains of thought and allotment stories

The Crocodile Collective: Stories of Washington (UK) and beyond is a podcast for anyone interested in history, heritage and everyday stories and sounds from Washington, Tyne and Wear. In this episode we hear about brothers Richard and Barney Betts’ journey from Crawleyside via Stanhope to Washington, along the C2C cycleway (between Whitehaven and Sunderland). Their journey was inspired by wishing to find out more about their ancestor, T.E Harrison who is part of the engineering legacy of Washington. We hear a live performance from the wonderful local singer songwriter Ken Tong about Railways. Close by the same cycleway, we hear from Roger Morris who muses on his allotment in Shepherds' Way and the importance of these green spaces in his and other allotment holders’ lives, wherever they're based. Crocodile collective members Jude Murphy and Ged Parker discuss the wider issues to do with the importance of the railway (and railway songs) and Washington’s unsung heroes of engineering. Finally, James Williams introduces his amazing short audio story Reflections of Green and Black.
