I think the 480 and the 484 both run within the allocated 2 hour window actually :)

Awwwww, no sleeper :( .

If we popped out to Dalmuir, we could get the Highland Sleeper and get into London over 3 hours earlier.

The Lowland Sleeper departs Glasgow Central 14 minutes earlier.

Because of this then, do you think we should take 2V51 (2309 Queen Street to Dalmuir arriving 2336) and then 1B01 (2353 to Euston ariving at 0747 Thursday).
