Charles R asked:


I will be landing on the ferry from Belfast in Stranraeer Scotland, and next would need to take the train north to Ayr.

For anyone who knows……..
How long is this trip?, How much does it cost?, Is it necessary , you think , to book ahead, if I am coming in late November?

Does this train run frequently??

thanks for your answers !

Does anyone know who owns and operates the Royal Scotsman train that runs from edinburgh Waverly. Im sure it is either GSWR, West Coast railways or Orient express.
I would like a job onboard does anyone know any details about the train or company, i would like to be the maintenance engineer or loco fitter.
I have seen the web site but thats not much help, does anyone know any contacts with the company?
Thanks in advance.
Thunderstruck, who was your contact if you dont mind me asking? Do you have details of how to contact someone like him ie email address?
