Great Northern full journey Cambridge to Kings Cross 25/10/2024

My first ever GN journey was onboard 387108 (coupled to 387114) working 2C57 1826 Cambridge to Kings Cross calling at Foxton, Shepreth, Meldreth, Royston, Baldock, Letchworth, Hitchin, Stevenage, Knebworth, Welwyn North, Welwyn Garden City, Hatfield, Potters Bar, Alexandra Palace, Finsbury Park and Kings Cross. Due to short platforms, passengers for Foxton, Shepreth and Meldreth should board the front 4 coaches. Oyster and contactless can only be used between Kings Cross and Potters Bar, although contactless (but not oyster) is valid as far as Welwyn Garden City. I'll definitely do this route again but during the day on a Desiro Shitty (Desiro City or Class 700 with undesirable ironing boards) continuing to Brighton!
