  • Also, one must remember, that in first class, one doesn’t need to sit alongside the numpties. You can’t put a price on that. 😂👍
  • Haha you done the walking in to the kitchen thing. Ive lost count how many customers have done that, I usually tell them their late and there's pot to be washed 😂
  • Well. What can I say. Real meal, real food. Absolutely cracking. Well done, Avanti West Coast. Thank you for video Scott.

    It's better than during Covid when 1st had nothing service wise. This is much better!
  • That food offering knocks spots off that offered by LNER on their London-Edinburgh service.
  • Super review and that food looked super. Just spotted myself and another dispatcher colleague in the background. Wish I’d spotted you. I’d have come over to say hi.

    Im apart of the cleaning crew for the avanti trains in glasgow. How did you find the cleanliness of the train. Glad you enjoyed your experience also 😊
  • @steve-marsh
    How amazing is this train and onboard experience! Wow. Do you think you need to be lucky to get this new looking product, or is it just normal for Avanti West Coast? Cheers Scott!
