TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"If you’re upgrading your seat for a weekend trip and travelling to/from stations without lounges, Standard Premium might be a better option than First Class: weekend services have a more restricted menu compared to weekdays. And as the seats are the same on Standard Premium and First Class, you may prefer to bring some snacks on board and save the few extra pounds."
"I always travel with my refillable water bottle on trains, which makes Avanti West Coast’s Water Refill Points especially handy for longer journeys. You’ll be able to top yours up at these stations, the onboard shop on Pendolino and Evero trains."

London Euston Travel Guides:
TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"With a live train tracker, I've often been notified of the train platform minutes before it's up on the main station board. Avanti West Coast passengers who haven't booked a seat should head straight for Coach C (or C, G and U on an 11-coach train), which is left unreserved. The ramps between the platforms and the main concourse are pretty steep, so hold on to your suitcases when boarding or alighting."
