Author Samina Siddiqui shares her joy at researching the stories of Muslims working on Britain’s railways. Through listening to stories from Muslims working on the railways across the 60s, 70s, and 80s Samina uncovered rich themes of duty, service and a real sense of belonging and community. The research has also inspired her to dig into her own family past, a story which has revealed a strong personal connection to the railways in India stretching back through the generations.
