Been a Class 385 train at long last!
I’am so happy, yes maybe I need to get more! At long last, I’ve been on a Class 385 train. The last number of times, I’ve been in Scotland they have been withdrawn, from service for a number of reasons!
Got say, that I do really like them! Just hope, next time, I get to do a longer journey, since I only went from North Berwick to Edinburgh Waverley. So need to try them out on the Glasgow-Edinburgh route.

Falling back in love with train journeys!
Today, I had to use three trains to get from Paisley to Grantham. The first train took me from Paisley Gilmour Street to Glasgow Central. Then, I of course had to walk from Glasgow Central to Glasgow Queen Street.
I could have got the 5:15pm to Edinburgh Waverley, but it was way to busy. So I waited till the 5:30pm ScotRail service, which worked out better, since it was a Class 365, eight-carriage train.
Still can’t believe how much better the Glasgow–Edinburgh via Falkirk line, since the electrification project. Just hope, that next time, I use the line. I get to use one of the Class 385 trains!
Once in Edinburgh, it was time to wait for the 7:36pm service to Grantham. Got to say, that LNER is so better than Virgin Trains! Which is, one of the main reasons I stopped going by train!
Also Adam the train manager was so funny!! He was coming out with things like “the buffet car is located in coach H for hungry” and “If you are still standing and not a fan of Elton John head to coaches E and F”
