Stunning scenery, and Scotrail can't be arsed to wash the windows. Time and time again.

So I did this route Monday just gone, best scenery i've ever experienced! But with seats not made for such a long journey, it was brutal, was glad to make if off the train, but even more glad I got the full journey both ways recorded end to end, I sat left side and stayed there, just swapped opposite sides of the table at Fort William as my edit will seamlessly pan rount 180, then for the return I sat the other side so both sides are covered.

I'm planning on filming this route, thanks for doing the walk through at the end, which i wanted to see to guage the amount of tables and the allignment to the windows, so its all great, the accessible toilet is a bonus too, many thanks

I definitely would like to go to Glasgow. I have been to Edinburgh.

I took this trip in 2021 and I was not disappointed.  The breathtaking scenery more than makes up for the uncomfy seats in my opinion.  Also I found legroom was fine.  Not to mention the nice clickery clack noise on the old jointed rails is always a delight to hear

Thanks for sharing  I will be looking up this journey  ..

That was great and brought back memories when we did it on The Jacobite steam train in 2020 just stunning 👍👍

really nice journey from the train cabin shooting all the stunning scenery outside and share with us- nice job thanks so much

Wow, what a stunning journey. I’ve got to try it sometime. The UK has so much to offer - thankfully, we have travel bloggers on YouTube, because I wouldn’t have known about most of these places.

When they did those units up it was more of a downgrade - everyone hates the new seats. I think next time I'll be taking a travel pillow with me! The windows are always dirty - you actually get clearer pictures pointing your camera out the door window! Funnily enough I did a walkabout at Crianlarich only yesterday, and your video then popped up in my recommendations! I've been stuck at Crianlarich a few times, Honestly if you're going to be stuck anywhere en-route Crianlarich and Tyndrum are probably the best as there's accommodation, places to eat and buses 😂

Thank you for posting this, you have done a great job on the production. As I have my own channel I know what it takes to produce a video of this calibre.
Fyi I was  born in Partickbthen moved to Knightswood (Westerton Station), played football all around that area and served my apprenticeship in John Brian’s shipyard.
Your attention to detail of the landscape and lineside /station coverage will provide lots of information for the modeller. I hope you enjoyed the trip as much as I did.
Cheers

Hi, I have a suggestion for a travel video if you would like to do it one day. It’s going from London Liverpool to Southend Victoria with greateranglia, and then from Southend Central back to Liverpool street with c2c. Then, you could compare both journeys and see what journey is better.

Wow looks a great journey and a great ticket price. I travel from Manchester to Glasgow a couple of times a year and the only direct service is TPE. Needless to say ive had a few free journeys!

Brilliant video did you know ScotRail has an alcohol ban !!!

When you revisit maybe use The Jacobite,

Good clear explanation and descriptions. Next time try Scottish Citylink from Glasgow to Oban and/or Glasgow to Fort William.
Fort William route. You go along the Clyde to Balloch and close to Loch Lomond then Crianlarich. From there through stunning Glencoe to Kinlochleven. In the old days the road went high on the south side....then along north bank. A few times the RAF jets would be below road level when doing training flights.  Now the bridge saves miles and time...The last few miles into Fort William is scenic.

You are entitled to a full refund if the train is 1 hour or more late. This happened to me on a trip to Stockport from Norwich.

Why are there tickets sticking up on the seats?

Do they have a lift to save going down all those steps with Cases?

Great video, but shame about the breakdown at Crianlarich. At least you did get a full refund for the lateness ! Scotrail has a real problem with its DMU fleets, for there has been talk of replacing the 156s on the West Highland line with 158s. Unfortunately this cannot happen before Scotrail orders new bi-mode trains for the new route in Fife to Leven. That will enable a cascade of sorts, but this could be a very long time away. The 156s have been very good units, and the refurbishment was o.k. but better seats with more spacing should have been installed for this route. I wonder if you will try a ride in the cycle spaced 153s which are starting to appear on the line to Fort William and Mallaig ?!!!
