No, you didn't make a mistake in taking this trip. You relied on the train operators to proivde the advertised service which was the let down. However, you achived what you set out to do within 48 hours, so good on you! It has made me wary though of making a journey reuwirng multiple changes of trains. Your videos have become complusive viewing for me, so all the best for the future. 💗

Agree. Am I selfish on that as I was once a child. Yup. But I just like to sit in silence watching. Don’t mind quiet chat but it’s the same with those with headphones that still think they have a right to have it as loud as possible so it leaks out and that we should all enjoy it as well. I’d pay a few £ for a total supervised quiet car that means no loud headphones and no children under 12 and that actually removes people that break certain rules.

Travelling from Manchester (preferably Victoria) to Holyhead for the ferry to Dublin on SailRail, I’d love to see more direct services without having to change trains at Chester, Crewe, Bangor or Lladnuo in Wales and ideally, I’d love to travel in first class where possible, preferably in a private compartment - on the ferry, especially overnight, I prefer to get a cabin for the 3 hours crossing if I’m feeling especially tired, otherwise it’s the Club Class Lounge on the Irish Ferries Ulysses ferry

Thanks Dylan that was great. You deserve all the praise you get. I wasn't expecting you to start at Berry Brow - a station I used when visiting friends on the road up to Castle Hill! I've used the All-line Rovers myself, they give you complete flexibility without having to worry about missing a pre-booked train and losing money as a result. I remember once completely altering my plans on Shrewsbury station when a train I wanted was cancelled. I was surprised you hadn't done that for this trip. Although I live in Scotland I've never used the Caley Kipper as it has a bad reputation for reliability, unlike the older sleepers which I used to use quite happily. £7 a pint for beer in London - and recently a Londoner had the nerve to complain to me about a bar in the Highlands charging £5! What a cheek! I've no idea what monetised KZbinrs earn, but you've earned it with this one Dylan. Well done.

VERY Well done - both on the 100,000 subscribers; and the 48-hour ride. Compare if you will the bright happy face at the start of the video with the travel-weary knackered one at the end! You should have allowed yourself at least one standard sleeper cabin - we'd not have minded. But you'll know next time - as more laid-back videos would be nice, every now and then... Interesting that they feel the need to put notices on the backs of the tip-up seats on your Liverpool Street to Stratford train - informing us that they're not in use when they're in that state, isn't it? And there was me thinking they might be occupied by really small people... And, Aberdeen station... just when will they leave that place alone, I wonder? Thanks for staying awake to film Kintore, too. You'll have Inverness Airport next time you're up that way - and maybe Reston and East Linton - and maybe even direct from Huddersfield at that; seeing as ScotRail is doing its best to forget about its plans for an Edinburgh to Berwick local service...?!! There's an idea for you: everywhere you can get a direct train from Huddersfield to...

Congratulations, Dylan. First of all congratulations on your 100,000 subscribers. Second of all congratulations on this wonderful and extraordinary video, which I have thoroughly enjoyed. I must tell you Dylan that you are now my idol and my hero. You’ve done something I would like to have done, but haven’t been able: spend 48 hours on different trains. In my various trips in London and the UK, I could not have used that time for this extraordinary adventure. And in my country, Argentina, where we used to have a very wide railway network, most of it has disappeared. However, while in London my last time, in 1985, I did a station tour. In one of two days. I visited most railway terminal stations: Victoria, Waterloo, London Bridge (which is not real a terminal), Liverpool Street, Kings Cross, St. Pancras, Euston, and Paddington. I am sure I have missed one or two. Most of the stations I had used in my different. Thanks again, Dylan, congratulations and blessings. And see you again next time.

I'm sure other ideas could easily be thought up.

Nice video and congratulations, you deserve it. 🙂 I have two minor disagreements.. First, I don't think the Class 195 or 331s are bad trains. They are boring and unremarkable but I find them fine on the Calder Valley Line and WCML. Suspension is a bit hard and not quite as good as the 150s, but they are much more modern and I think nicer to travel on. If you don't focus on the ride quality you don't notice it. Secondly, while LNW have offered me some fantastically cheap fares from Crewe to London. Their 350 trains are often filthy and uncomfortable. I have got on at Crewe to find litter everywhere, stained carpets etc. After an hour the seats are like sitting on a park bench. Still the fare was so cheap compared to Avanti I couldn't complain. Just my thoughts anyway. 🙂
