Travelling with Great Western Railway from London Euston to Theale
Great Western Railway (GWR) serves the West of England and South Wales from its central hub at London Paddington.

TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"Commuter times and weekend trains can be quite overcrowded on GWR trains (especially on trains to/from London Paddington), mainly due to the fact they tend to opt for 5-carriage trains instead of 9. I’d recommend booking a seat if travelling at these times to save you battling for one. "
"The Pullman Dining experience really is something everyone should try at least once. You can opt for 2 or 3 course meals prepared by chefs Monday–Friday with produce sourced from regions across GWR’s network. First Class passengers can book 2 weeks in advance (not included in the ticket), and Standard passengers can enquire with staff about availability on the day."

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."
