"It’s worth checking the latest departure information shortly before you set off, especially for early-morning journeys. If your train is delayed or cancelled, checking ahead gives you more time to adjust your plans instead of discovering a disruption when you arrive at the station."

"If you’re booking a window seat because you want to enjoy the views, check the seating layout before confirming your choice. On some trains, the windows don’t line up perfectly with the seats, so a “window seat” may have part of its view blocked by a pillar. A carriage layout can help you choose a seat with a clearer view, particularly on scenic journeys through Yorkshire and the North East."

"Visiting York: York is compact enough to explore almost entirely on foot, and some of its best discoveries come from wandering away from the main streets. Keep an eye out for Whip-Ma-Whop-Ma-Gate, one of the city’s quirkiest street names, just a short walk from the Shambles. It’s also worth using the City Walls as part of your route rather than walking the same streets twice."
