Trains from Heathrow to St. Andrews

Could someone please advise me how I get from Heathrow to St. Andrews. Can I get all the way to St. Andrews or do I go to Edinburgh ? Then what do I take ?

Booked well in advance, BMI has cheap flights from LHR to Edinburgh.

Train route: Take the Piccadilly line (London Underground) to King's Cross St Pancras (£4). It's a one-hour ride. Depending upon the time of day, you'll either take a National Express East Coast train all the way to Leuchars (the closest station to St. Andrews) or you'll take a National Express East Coast train to Edinburgh and change there to a First ScotRail train to Leuchars. Then take a short bus ride to St. Andrews. For train timetables and fares use the Journey Planner at www.nationalrail.co.uk. Walk-up fares for London-Leuchars are over £100. Booked well in advance, fares are as low as £22.
