"Night Train" is a collaboration between artist Birtley Aris and poet Sean O'Brien. The book is presented as a poet-artist's sketch-cum-notebook, in which the text as well as the artwork is hand drawn. This is a world of steam-trains, platforms and railway landscapes glimpsed by night, with a buried tale of love and madness. It is an intensely romantic English world in the tradition of Eric Ravilious and John Piper.
