We left around 11:30 and waited for our train for approximately thirty minutes. You will be in first class and they serve lunch with wine. The lunch wasn't very good but we had a good breakfast at the Savoy restaurant so it really didn't matter to us. It was a pleasant ride.
We had a much longer wait at the station but it was great to just people watch. It was packed but everyone was orderly and polite. My husband had a delightful conversation with a young man who was in the British Armed Forces and who was gracious enough to give up his seat for my husband.
There was a snack bar close by where I purchased a latte--surprisingly good. I thought the lunch provided on the train was okay, but would have been better if the quiche had been warm. As Noreen mentioned, the ride was very nice.
