Hi, this is my first post here.
Welcome!
I use East Coast Train quite often from Doncaster to Edinburgh and sometimes I can get the cheaper Advance First Class ticket. Before the only reason to pay little more is the free wifi (sadly, sometimes it is very slow). Now, it seems the free meal sounds very attarctive to me.
May I ask some question:
1. The Advance First Class ticket with Rail card will be ok to get the free meals?
Looks like it.
2. I will have these two bought Flirst Class trips: Doncaster to Edinburgh 11:10-14:18 of 23 May; and Edinburgh to Doncaster 18:30-21:38 of 26 May. What kinds of food I can get for each trip?
As has been said, we'll have to wait until the annotated timetables are out, this will give us an indication.
3. How does the service staff decide which type of meal to provide? according to the passenger's train ticket departing time or?
Dictated by above, they will have a set list. (Say its an afternnon tea train, they will offer what that dictates.)
4. Can I get the wine service after noon during the trip but my trip departing time is earlier?
I would hazard a guess at yes, but I'm not sure, may depend how far into your journey noon is.
Thanks for your reading and hope to get some expert's replies.
I'm no expert, the above is all from what I can gather.
