Avanti West Coast TILTING Class 390 Pendolino - What is it like to ride in Standard Premium?

Unit: 390 124
Route: Glasgow Central-London Euston
In this video: Carlisle-Preston (Lancs)
Happy New Year! We start 2024 with a train operator that I have not been on before, this is my first ever ride on a Class 390 Pendolino by Avanti West Coast! We take the train from Carlisle down to Preston (Lancashire).
We are travelling with a Standard Premium ticket, but they put me in a First Class coach with a Standard Premium seat. Basically, Standard Premium is same as First Class but without the catering.
Do I think these trains are as good as LNER? Watch to find out!

I've got to agree Reece - nicer than the Azuma offering for sure. To be fair to LNER, the Azuma deal was already done before they took over, but they're so obviously more about numbers than passenger comfort. Well done to Avanti on this offering, and those Standard Premium tix are well worth checking out. Thanks for the review.

I'm glad you enjoyed! I personally feel there's more variety on the Avanti West Coast services to be fair.

Thanks, Ian! Always striving to make my videos, captions and description the best they can be for my viewers.

Great video Reece The station front at Carlisle would have looked very different if you had filmed this a few weeks later, after a bus crashed into the ticket office area

Thanks! I actually didn't know that at all, but thanks for sharing!
