A group of my friends and I have all booked tickets separately to go to Skipton from Edinburgh on the 27th September. Naturally we're dispersed throughout carriage A so I was wondering if anyone could help with getting hold of a map of the carriage seat layout so that we can see who is sitting where in relation to each other on the reserved seat part of the trips

The trains are
Depart: Edinburgh 06:15 Change at:Carlisle arr. 07:32

Change at: Lancaster dep. 19:14 Arrive: Edinburgh, 21:38


Many thanks for any help

Both these trains:


  • 0615 Edinburgh-Manchester Airport and
  • 1800 Manchester Airport-Edinburgh (calls Lancaster 1914)

are TPE services, both appear to be planned to be an electric "Class 350" unit, though a diesel "Class 185" is possible. In some cases, two units provide double the capacity, though I do not know if that applies to either of these trains.

I'm struggling to find a "Class 350" seating plan, but a "Class 185" seating plan can be found here.

Class 350 seating plans are given in TPE's Manchester-Windermere / Scotland timetable booklet.

The 350/4 bookings have a software glitch that can try to put Standard passengers in seat numbers located in the 1st compartment.

Would anyone have a scan of the booklet or be able to let me know where I might get one?

Wondering what would happen if we have encountered that software glitch

Just finally found this seating plan after searching for a good while.

I have seats booked edin-wigan, wigan-edin at end of next month. I have a party of 4 with reservations. According to the seating plans on our outward journey our seats are ok. However for our return it has us in Coach A, seats 42, 43, 46, 47. As far as I can see there is no seat 47.

TPE customer services don't seem to have a clue either. Anyone know what the deal is here?

just spoke with TPE again and apparently all their seating plans have recently changed. Absolute nightmare trying to obtain this info.

You don't have to sit in your reserved seats. The 0615 off Edinburgh will be fairly quiet so just all sit together in unreserved seats. If they use paper reservations just tell the guard to remove them as you won't be using them. There will always be at least one carriage which has no reserved seats in at all. I can't remeber the last time I used my reserve seat.

I'll try twitter once they are online tomorrow. If you can take a picture or a scan that would be much appreciate but no worries if not. I wonder maybe you can give me please the seat numbers? You see in Coach B, the non-driving coach that doesn't contain First Class there are two tables back to back that fully line up with the windows, these are the only ones in the whole train that do. What are the seat numbers of the window seats between these two tables? Many thanks!

(On the plan above they are 11 and 17, but if I'm correct they should now have 4 different numbers)

Your seats are in the non driving end of A in a 350, all are aisle seats around the outer edge of two tables opposite each other, so you will be chatting across the aisle. !85 similar but the tables are one behind the other not opposite.
HTH.
