Luke Bowman is the boy who is never lost thanks to an amazing knowledge of public transport.
The autistic 12-year-old knows all the train and bus routes across Greater Manchester, plus the London and Paris underground systems.
Luke, who wants to be a train driver, is so knowledgeable that he managed to get himself and his father from his home in Oldham, Greater Manchester, to Brittany using only public transport.
His mother Tracey said: “He even knows all the underground stops in Paris and exactly where to change. “
“There is nothing that Luke doesn't know about trains, from the country where they were made to their model numbers and what engines are in them. “
“If he's not researching trains on the internet, he's drawing them.”
Tracey added: “His memory is unbelievable. He's so bright that there's a bit of a running joke in the family that if you are ever lost - just ring Luke.”
