8 HOURS on Britain's WORST High Speed Train - The Highland Chieftain from Inverness to London

For my 100th video on the channel, we'll be looking at LNER's Highland Chieftain service which runs a daily service from Inverness to London (and return) and takes close to 8 hours to complete. Whilst the Azuma trains LNER use aren't the comfiest, this journey is undoubtedly one of the best you can take in Britain, and you'll see why in the video. Enjoy!
