I am getting the sleeper back from Fort William Friday pm -> Saturday am
Due Euston 07:49. It is a 12 - 15 minute walk Euston to St Pancras. I have done it many times so I know where I am going and where to go at St Pancras for the train I want to catch.
I want to get the HS1 service to Ashford that leaves at 08:12 on a separate Advance ticket.
This leaves 23 minutes for the connection. If the sleeper is on time I will make it no problem walking, however if it is a little bit late I will struggle.
If I missed that connection due to a late arrival on the sleeper will I be able to just get on the next HS1 to Ashford?
NR journey planner shows 08:37 departure from St Pancras as the connection on a through journey from Fort William, is that an indication that 08:12 is not a valid connection? A ticket on the 08:37 will cost substantially more than the 08:12.
I am guessing that if I book a shorter than "accepted" connection time all the risk is on me and even if the inbound connection is late I could be refused travel on the next service on my Advance ticket.
