I've been making a lot of railway journeys this summer and have just done the Mid Cheshire line which was nice and the Penistone line which was beautiful but not very comfy being stuck in a crowded pacer for almost an hour and a half.

Planning to do the Settle > Carlisle line in about two weeks so looking forward to that.

Where have my fellow britbongs been lately - made any nice train journeys? Any hidden gems? What about nice/unique stations visited?

>As long as your cadence is between like 60-120 RPM you should be good.
Uh, no.
The lower you cadence is, the more torque is required per crank revolution to maintain the same power, therefore muscular endurance plays a larger part than aerobic endurance does. This is made obvious by the fact that at a set power output, at lower cadences your heart rate will be lower than at higher cadences. At lower cadences you're fatiguing your muscles faster.
You should aim for a cadence of 90-100rpm under most circumstances, including on climbs, saving your muscular endurance for the steeper climbs where you can't maintain a cadence that high.

If you can't comfortably maintain 90-100rpm on the flat and at a steady road speed, then your pedaling efficiency is low for some reason. That's a limiter that needs to be addressed, you're wasting power with opposing muscles working against each other. Single-leg pedaling drills and endurance pedaling (as described here: >>1287586) will fix that over time.

>>1287387
If you really want to build leg strength you need to spend some time in the gym during the off-season.
At the same time you're building basic leg strength you can also build core strength and shoulder strength, so you don't waste leg power with your core, shoulders, and arms flexing during hard efforts.

Also, basic strength is just one part of a three-part equation. The other two are 'aerobic endurance' and 'muscular endurance'.
If you ride all the time, and, say, 50-100 miles in a day isn't out of reach for you, then you probably don't have too many concerns in the 'aerobic endurance' department.
'Muscular endurance' is something else entirely, though, it's the ability to sustain hard (not 'anaerobic', though) efforts for long periods of time.
How you accomplish Muscular Endurance training is through intervals in your Anaerobic Threshold range, and a cadence in the range of 70 to 80rpm. What this does is force more muscle fibers to fire per pedal stroke because you need to produce more torque at that cadence. Over the weeks you do these sorts of intervals your muscle fibers will grow more mitochondria and form more capillaries and blood vessels, producing more fuel for contractions, meaning they can work longer before fatiguing.
What this translates to is: "Turning over a big gear fast, longer".

>Pros go on crazy diets to get in race weight to the point of starving themselves.
They don't starve themselves. You'll sabotage yourself if you do that.

What I've found is effective for me, is to limit carbohydrates to no more than 40% of total calories every day, and on basic endurance rides of up to a couple hours, take nothing but water with me, and on basic endurance rides of 2 hours or more, take only 100kcal per bottle with me. Of course you also need to overall eat at a mild cut (300 to 500kcal deficit), ensuring you're getting enough protein as well. Of course you shouldn't be going out doing hard interval training doing that (like Threshold work or Sprint work), but usually you're focusing on losing excess bodyfat during the off-season anyway, when most all of your rides are basic endurance-level anyway; if you race you should not be trying to lose weight during race season.
