Timothy Kell Mags- here's something I've been asking myself. Is there any value (cost saving? fun adventure? great scenery? etc, etc) to flying into London, and then taking a train up to Glasgow? Or is that more hassle than it's worth?

Alistair Wylie Hi. I doubt there would be a cost saving plus the train service can be a bit hit or miss......and tickets can be costly unless you book far in advance. I guess it would really hinge on whether or not a stopover in London is important!
