Beats my £10.80 from London Northwestern Rail for Tuesday's issues i had getting home for sure.
In contrast, LNER {North Eastern} were absolutely brilliant with a delayed Edinburgh to nodnoL a few weeks back. Got my ticket price refunded via the usual delay repay and a ten quid ''meal credit'' to spend on board {a cuppa, bag of crisps and a sandwich covers it with change for a KitKat}.
Added bonus, some immovable object was sat in my seat, so I informed the Train Manager...they just said I could sit in First Class, so effectively a free upgrade. I hope seat pincher enjoyed the stunning views of North Berwick, Dunbar, Eyemouth, Berwick, Goswick, Bamburgh and Alnmouth.
I will say, even in Standard Class, the lap trays on LNER have plenty of room for travel snacks and ample room for a keep cup/thermos/water bottle etc
Edit: Not sure what happened to my original post on the thread
