Date of Travel: 6 August 2019
Class of Travel: Standard Class
Cost of Ticket: £81.75 One Way (Railcard Discount Included)

Info not included in the video:

Standard Class on Cross Country is laid out in a 2-2 configuration. If (you have more sense than me and) choose to travel in first class, you can expect a 2-1 configuration.

When I booked my ticket for this trip, the cross country website wouldn't sell me the ticket for some reason so I had to book it through the trainline. Also, if you intend on taking this trip, be sure to book the train that displays 0 changes because when I tried to book this trip, both cross country and the trainline seemed very keen to sell me a ticket for a journey that was about an hour shorter but also involved 2 changes! This confused me a bit as both this journey and the journey that they were trying to sell me departed Aberdeen at 08:20.

Also, I would strongly recommend that you reserve a seat as this train can get very busy for quite a large portion of the trip (particularly between Dundee and Leeds!)
