  • I took the LNER Azuma train in First Class from Edinburgh Waverley Station to London Kings Cross. Even though my incoming rail service was the Caledonian Sleeper in a Club Room, this was by no means a poor substitute. I received truly some of the best cabin service I've ever received in any cabin on land, on the sea or in the air.
    All the team members working for LNER should be commended for offering friendly and genuine service.

    Have you been converted to taking rail instead of air?

    Rail always feels so relaxing compared to air
    Went to London in April, flew down with EasyJet, which was such a hastle. From my flight getting cancelled the day before (and needing to rebook at a DIFFERENT AIRPORT)
    To the stress of security, and hustle of a crowded terminal.
    Contrast that with our Caledonian sleeper train back home. Spent 2 hours beforehand chilling in the Euston first class lounge, with all the wee snacks and drinks we'd ever need
    Leisurely board the train, get to our room, and being greeted by the (Lovely) staff
    Head to the club car, have a snack, then head to bed
    Then wake up with a lovely bacon roll in the morning as we pull into Glasgow

      I couldn't agree with you more. Short hop air travel these days is tantamount to a glorified bus ride. Security, delays, crowds, the list keeps going on.
      Thankfully, rail has still held on to some of the magic and majesty of what it was like to travel in comfort and style.
      I actually took the Caledonian Sleeper from London to Edinburgh and LOVED every single moment of it. Nothing beats a bacon bap...except for a full Scottish brekkie!

    I am in no need of conversion! Already I like trains! No music is a plus for me but I do enjoy your commentaries. Beautiful scenery. Thank you for the video!

      In today's world, it's all about the quickest way to get to your destination. People have forgotten how to 'travel'. A journey is more about the whole experience. That is something rail travel offers overs air. You know I LOVE aviation, so this is not me dissing that mode of transport. Just saying that this is a valid alternative if you have the time.

    Thanks for your video. We'll be taking the Avanti line first class from Euston up to Glasgow in April but the LNER on the return from Edinburgh to King's Cross in May. It looks like a lovely comfortable trip.

    Let's do a comparison, for similar Hitachi motors.
    British Rail Class 800: Audi A6 40TDI
    CRH380C: Audi RS6
    (btw, "Harmony" CRH380C is based on Siemens Velaro)

    I know you like travelling but how do you keep yourself occupied on long trips, if it be planes, trains or buses?

    • @TimEatsandTravels
      @TimEatsandTravels  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Well, you'd be surprised how much of my travel time is actually taken up by my filming commitments. Setting up cameras, filming B-Roll, commentating, etc, I often don't have much time to enjoy the flight itself. haha

    We have nothing this extra in Australia! Nothing within the affordability of the average Aussie anyway
