    Best First Class Seat on Pendolino

    I ended up getting K12 allocated on the booking system my company uses, it's on the 17:30, also I can't imagine they'll forcibly kick me out of a reserved seat surely?

    Best First Class Seat on Pendolino

    Hello Travelling first class on business next month travelling from Euston to Glasgow, but I am wondering which seat is best in first class from a comfort/noise perspective? Would look to travel in one of the single seats (i.e. nobody opposite) and ideally in the direction of travel. Thanks

I tap in at the start of my journey and at the ticket barrier at Charing Cross, I tap in on my return...

    2105 Glasgow Central to Edinburgh Waverley XC

    http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/C76012/2018/08/20/advanced I've been on this service once before but I've never understood the reason to divert to avoid Haymarket just to terminate at the eastbound platform 7. Surely it makes more sense to run this service to a through platform?

    VTEC and Seatfrog

    I know that the Seatfrog app can be used at the moment for last minute first class upgrades, but will this still be running after it becomes LNER?

    Reservations with existing ticket

    Can someone help me clarify what to do in this situation? - I purchased a XC only ticket between Glasgow Central and Haymarket for today. - I purchased this ticket through the Scotrail website - I did not request a reservation at the time but would now like to reserve a seat on the 1900...

    Edinburgh to Brighton

    I know that all too well, but it's £7.50 or £8.50 on the bus/tram just to get there. Realistically it's whether the cost of flights plus travel to/from airports outweighs the cost of trains with multiple splits. EasyJet flies to Gatwick so this could work, again needs to be balanced out by...

    Edinburgh to Brighton

    I've used Trainsplit before but I think it's more down to reducing the cost to Brighton from London i.e. the availability of the £5 advances. The journey to London itself would be fine if booked in advance

    Edinburgh to Brighton

    Generally speaking what is the cheapest way to do this route? Been thinking about going this summer for a couple of days but I want to get the price right. Not taking the megastar.My two options are - Train all the way (willing to split/change as many times as necessary and length doesn't...
