    The hushed silence and gentle rocking of the car as you blaze over the countryside makes train travel superior above all other modes of transportation, in my opinion. There isn't another travel experience quite like it.

    Greetings from Australia. My wife and I travelled from Edinburgh to Kings X a couple of years back and absolutely loved the journey. Unfortunately the train had to make an extended stop in Doncaster to have an overheating brake serviced. This resulted in a slight delay which did not inconvenience us at all. The train crew were wonderful and opened up the snack bar for free. A lovely bonus!

    Really miss my frequent trips to Scotland by train. My ex girlfriend who I still really miss lives in Glasgow and I would often go see her. I made sure never to fall asleep on the train just so I could immerse myself in the views. Both rail lines which take you into Scotland have breathtaking views once you get past Manchester/Preston and on the other side Newcastle/Berwick Upon Tweed.

My daughter and i traveled on Britrail in 2008 and the sceneries from York to Edinburgh was awesome, especially the North Sea, loved the memories of seeing the sights once again,I live in the U.S. and i wish i could relive this travel once again but I know it was only once in a lifetime experience for me.

    Dec 2010.. probably one of the worst winter in Europe... Took me like 12 hours from Montrose to London and 2 times train exchange (should be a direct train, but rail blocked by ice) and finally completing the trip with double decker bus without heater from only God know where to London at midnight... dragging 20kgs of luggage and most of the train's door are stuck with ice. What a hell of experience.

I’ve traveled a few times in standard but mostly in first class and I can truthfully say that in either standard or first class the trains were spotless, the staff were were for me the best that would be an asset to any of the top hotels in the U.K. now the food, the only thing I can say about the food was it was delicious and filling. 👍👍👍👍👍

    Growing up in the 60’s and 70’s my family loved air and train traveling. I especially loved the food cars. But, recently, my husband and I traveled by train. I became debilitatingly nauseous from motion sickness and claustrophobia. It was strange because I had never had difficulty traveling by train before. Even air travel causes claustrophobia. But I can enjoy your videos and remember how it was.

I think having such a great world city in your country is something to be proud of. I get there are downsides, e.g. it attracts some bad people, it distorts the UK economy, being a hub probably made Covid worse for the UK, etc,.

International students coming to study in England might be rich in their country but all of sudden feel poor in England and always look ways to save their money. Megabus was a blessing for me with the cheap fares. Although i traveled between Durham and Newcastle by train many times. Obviously Megabus doesn't have a stop in Durham, you have to go to Newcastle.

    I really enjoyed this video, thank you. You were lucky to be in one of the old Mark 3 trains and not an Azuma where the 1st class is little better than 2nd. I travel regularly from Glasgow to York and back, using 1st class whenever I can afford it. I always found the Edinburgh and Newcastle based catering staff chirpy and friendly, and am missing them a bit in the Pandemic. I couldn't belive you managed to catch a shot of a green Class 47 loco in the sidings at Tweedmouth without even commenting upon it! One of the highlights of the film! Oh, and by the way, sheep come in flocks, not herds, although I know that livestock vocabulary can be difficult.

      @TheRenaissanceman65 What I didn't say in my previous posting, was that last time I went First Class in an Azuma I had an aisle seat as the train was busy, and the table leg is directly in front of your knees, so I couldn't fold my feet over each other as one often does when sitting (i.e. ankle over ankle), and it was hard to move my legs around. I can no longer see the point in paying extra for first class.

      Unfortunately the Mark 4 carriages featured in this travel report have since been replaced by Japanese Class 800 Azuma trains, whose seats are far less comfortable!

    Good that you enjoyed LNER's IC225s and the IC125s while you still could. The new Azumas might be quicker off the mark but the interior ambience is rubbish by comparison.

      During a ten year time period I knew one person who traveled a good distance by train. The heyday of train journeys ended when airplanes became quieter, more comfortable, safer and---got us to a destination in five hours rather than two days. There is no point in investing in something too few utilize in a nation covering such a massive area..

    • @Denis-tg6jw

      msr111 I understand your point, but modern train travel is a very attractive option. In many ways the bigger the distance the better. In Europe, Japan and China, train is a very real alternative. I can travel from London to Paris direct, no nonsense with a "Paris" airport that is actually miles from the city. No hellish airport checks, queues or restrictions on luggage. Door to door travel in a time comparable to or even faster than plane travel. I don't know if the will is there to invest in train travel in the U.S, but I think it will work there as it does elsewhere.

      These were first in service in 1989 so fairly old now, they have been refurbished internally (search Intercity 225 if interested - derived partially from the BR Advanced Passenger Train that unfortunately was dropped).
      The Diesel Electric Intercity 125 is now well over 40 years old (introduced in late 1976) and has only very recently been displaced on to shorter journey routes by new trains manufacrtured by Hitachi. The IC125 was refurbished a number of times in it's life complete with re-engineering of the power cars around 2006.
