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."

TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"Visiting Coventry: Coventry's city centre is surprisingly compact, with the vast majority of major attractions well within walking distance. One of the best ways to explore is to start at the Cathedral and wander towards Spon Street, where you'll find medieval timber-framed buildings that offer a completely different perspective on the city. A pro tip: don't overlook the smaller historic streets either, as Coventry's post-war redevelopment means some of its oldest buildings are hidden among much newer surroundings."
