Well it could have been a disaster of missed trains, delays and cancellations. But thanks to all the delightful station staff at the far too numerous changes I needed to do I safely got to Glasgow. I have never changed trains so many times in a journey and I have been to stations I've never been to before.
My unrealistic romantic ideas of train travel have been a little dinted today, but I am thankful for all the help in finding platforms and coaches. And now I can relax with 5 days with little planned ahead of me.
