    London to Glasgow - Best seat and general advice

    @70014IronDuke I'll consider that for next time! :lol: Thanks, that's good to know. I'll try and see if I can beat any others to that rearmost seat then. And if not I'll just slunk back to my reserved seat instead. I guess the downside is that row of single seats in K has windows to the...

I've never been to Scotland before so I thought I'd take the more scenic route of traveling from London to Glasgow by train as opposed to going by plane...
