I had the same on a Hull Trains Paragon northbound from KGX to Hull. Returned on a Hull Trains Paragon via the MML to STP on the recent diversions and found the ride quality better in general on the MML than ECML

As in "Spatry; larp out!" Lucky for Northern that other Cumbrian gems such as Beckermet and Curthwaite no longer have stations. 1707224097 Yes, attempting some of the vowel sounds should be interesting

Many thanks!

I’ve booked my daughter on this train with an LNER advance single, but it was cancelled yesterday (22 Sept); any advice on what she should do please? Looking at the prices it looks like it will be busy today even without the cancellation. Just to note she really has to travel today. Thanks.
