Standard
TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"Great Northern does not participate in Bid-Up schemes, so passengers seeking a First Class upgrade need to choose an Advance Single First Class fare. These can cost only a few pounds more than Standard Class, making First Class a practical option for longer journeys towards King’s Lynn."
"There are no designated quiet coaches on Great Northern services. For a quieter workspace, Class 387 Electrostars serving Cambridge have First Class compartments at the ends of the train, which can be less busy."
