I'll hopefully be doing York - King's Cross in July. I've noticed that the Grand Central Advance single tickets are much cheaper than the LNER Advance tickets.
RTT has GC services pathed as 125mph DMU's. So I'm guessing GC services are 180s? Do GC run with HSTs between York - King's Cross anymore?
I've never been on a 180, although I have been on ATW/TfW 175s. What are the 180s like to ride on? Are they smooth & relatively quiet (for a DMU)?
I'll be honest, I'd much rather a HST or Mk4 trip, but the GC Advance tickets are so cheap, is it worth paying more for an LNER trip?
Any advice appreciated. Thanks
