is your youtube video on saturday is at the edinburgh festival on saturday rog edwards tv?

In my experience, Lumo has much more comfortable seats than LNER.LNER seats are so hard they become painful after 2 hours. Lumo is much better but their locomotives are not as reliable. Getting back to seats, it isn't that expensive to get this requirement right, is it? LNER doesn't seem to take its passengers seating needs very seriously for long journeys. And, it's trains are dirtier. Also, and even in first class, they are always running out of sparkling water and also don't have enough water in the lavatories to enable you to wash your hands. These are basic points!!!! Get it right LNER!! Enjoyed the footage of the views on your journey, particularly Berwick and into Scotland.

Have you been to see the Anderson boat lift? A real step back in time and still used today

John Logie Baird made the BTH Central famous in 1927 when he made the historic connection of a television picture from London to the Central. They have a ballroom named after him.

I must say this hotel and the view are uncomparable. I really liked this video! Even in a rainy day the sea view is fantastic. thanks for sharing this pearl ^_^

Theses hotel stay must be costing you a fortune buddy but great review as always

I am very sorry to say that I was disappointed with this hotel. First off, the shower/bathroom having a stair in it was danger ( not clearly shown ) not to say not a disable friendly hotel. Most high priced hotel rooms have a bath tub not just a shower. It was a very dark hotel ( could have been camera lighting ) and I am not talking about the room with 5 windows. I would have loved to have seen the other hotel to compare, but I am guessing it is a better hotel.

I used to have holidays there as a kid, thanks for bringing back so many happy memories!

Great video! Very expensive, but you pay for what you get! Loving the foggy glass in the bathroom, lovely large room, the view out of the balcony is exceptional, but the Grand staircase is just WOW! amazing!

The most beautiful hotel you’ve visited so far (well as a youtuber). The Landmark might be at the same level, but they don’t got that amazing scenery. And yes, it’s like watching scenes from Poirot, my favourite detective 😊

Stayed there when it reopened in 2008, gosh time goes fast. Friends are actually staying there this weekend, small world . We did go to Morecambe for our summer holiday in 1980/1. They had a sun centre which had a few good years, but the weather put paid to it making any money and turned into a white elephant. Which was a shame because we were fortunate because when went the weather was fantastic.

Another CZcamsr who cannot control his volume levels, music a ear-splitting volume and then dialogue too quite, please consider trying to mix a consistent level of volume throughout your video.. Otherwise good content

That's rather blown my socks off Rog, what a Place! 👍 Definitely fancy trying that hotel, it looked fabulously different and full of character. I stopped over in Blackpool on a road trip last year, I should have made it Morecambe. That's for sure on my to-do list for the future. Best one yet, well done! 👌

this wasnt a BTH hotel when I worked for them from 1970 so must have been sold off ,,They had 33 hotels whenI worked for them ,,,Had dinner in midland about 1975 and they had a beautiful mural all up the stairs ,,,pity thats gone

Stayed in Morecambe a few years ago and we walked by it a few times and I always thought it looked beautiful.

Oh im absolutely loving this one, I love art deco, yet the inside is just perfection.. they done a perfect job. The views as well looking toward the Lake District hills across the bay are fab too ❤

It's such a shame Morecambe couldn't afford (or didn't want) to complete the statue of Morcambe (without Wise )It's not a patch on the one in the foyer of Blackpool's Winter Gardens

One hotel that's full of style and character, Roger. I never knew this railway hotel even existed but looking at a map of Morecambe I did see that it's a fairly short walk from the current station. Cook to order breakfast is a treat and it works at this hotel because I suspect guests aren't in a hurry. But at city centre hotels guests may have limited time and cannot afford to wait for a cooked breakfast to be served hence the buffet. Thanks for the video.

I've never been to Morecambe although I have been to Lancaster before and also Carnforth to go to the Booths supermarket. I've also been to the Booths supermarkets in Knutsford and Penrith.

Hercule Poirot hotel! I thought I recognized it from the exterior, but it seemed a bit ... unkept... As soon as I saw the staircase I knew it was the one used for a few episodes. Wonderful!

The current Midland Hotel was built by the L.M.S. Railway to replace the original which was built by the Midland Railway; you said it the wrong way around in the vlog.

Nice hotel for a relaxing stay..... lovely views. Richard in Newcastle upon Tyne 😊

Yes Roger, very art deco and half expected Poirot to appear! Midland very different, great interior, and that balcony/sea views. Pity about the weather. Yes, having a cooked to order breakfast definitely a bonus. Glasgow, imo, still the one to beat! Thanks for sharing. Nice one! 😊 👍

What a great hotel. Shame about the weather. At the Orkney Hotel in Kirkwall they do the same, individually cooked breakfast.

Bus route is a far more direct route no surprise tram took longer

Is it safe walk to hotel at night, that zone has night activities

It is a great pity why they did not use seats like those used in the Shinkansen Nozomi green car.

I think you should have your own TV programme. Fantastic presentation 👍

Great to follow along with this work. An excellent video, Roger.

NORTH BERWICK ALWAYS WORTH A VISIT.

Another nice vlog on the Railway Hotel series Roger! I rode a Manchester Tram during my so-called "Manchester Project" and quite enjoyed the short ride over to Manchester Piccadilly!

I must say the inside of the Midland does not impress me much and that damp patch on the ceiling would be a no for me. That said it's an amazing city and one I'm lucky enough to call home.

Those storms usually have "female names", don't they? 😮

Great update, Roger, on the harbour wall repair at North Berwick. Looking good. Must try and get back up to NB, soon. 😊 👍

High speed train train Those entrances above the station used to lead to music practicing/recording spaces when I lived in Dundee - they haven't been a part of the train station itself since before the previous rebuild that was replaced with the current rebuild.

That must have been the one day of the year that North Berwick gets sunshine.

The thing I found scary about walking the forth road bridge was that I was being battered by extremely high winds and somewhat heavy rain

Nice to see the wall coming back to normal... you've really documented this well Roger. Well done to the trust for using charitable funding obviously being used correctly and well done to the highly skilled workforce that is doing so well with rebuilding. Richard in Newcastle upon Tyne 😊

I stayed there twenty years ago, it was an absolute shithole, they must have spend millions on it since then…

falkirk wheel and canal goes to edinburgh
