Hi,
We have really appreciated all the great info we have gotten from everyone. Maybe you can help with this dilemma. After spending a few days in the Cotswolds we want to go to York and Liverpool and then the train to Edinburgh. We are trying to figure out which venue to take- Cotswolds to York then York to Liverpool then on to Scotland or Liverpool to York then on to Scotland. It looks like there may be a lot of time and train changes. We are starting to throw up our hands!! Any suggestions would be most appreciated!!

to Liverpool - Cheltenham Spa to Birmingham New Street (or Tamworth) to Liverpool Lime Street, or Moreton in Marsh to Worcestershire Parkway to Birmingham New Street and as before.
to York - Cheltenham Spa to York direct on Cross Country, or Moreton in Marsh to Worcestershire Parkway to York on Cross Country
Liverpool to York or v.v. - Liverpool Lime Street to York direct
Both Liverpool and York have services to Edinburgh, but from Liverpool Lime Street it is around the houses because Liverpool is at the end of the line; from York it is trivial - direct and frequent service on LNER.
Your confusion may be because you are zig zagging all over the place instead of going in a relatively straight line.

Not my expertise but it is Nigel’s. Just wondering why you would go to York from Cotswolds back to Liverpool then east again to Edinburgh? You might look at a map to see what your proposing to do. No wonder you’re throwing up your hands!
