Unbeaten Tracks in Japan by Isabella L. Bird | Project Gutenberg
Touring Japan - with a focus on several of the central farming areas and Hokkaido - as a solo female traveller in the summer of 1878. Well-written, sympathetic (well, about as much as could be expected at the time) and overall an interesting overview of many aspects of Japanese society at the time.
The Man in Seat Sixty-One - the train travel guide...
The marketing gets a bit tiresome (I wouldn't choose to give money to Virgin Trains if my life depended on it), but the guides on how to travel to various countries by train are pretty interesting.
This included various events in Dundee this year. (Which I found early in September, then completely forgot about. Maybe next year...)

A guide to European (and British) rail travel. Pity about the hard sell, but lots of interesting information.
