The Train Journey North

2022-Jul-05

Today was an early start: 5:45 to catch the bus from the hotel for what would be a long day.

We took the Tube to St Pancras Station, a beautiful train station built in 1868. From there, we took the regional train up to Nottingham. There Jen had several hours of meetings at Nottingham University’s Advanced Manufacturing Department. Dave was lucky enough to get a personal tour of one of the labs and of campus.

After lunch and a brief wrap, we were off again. Back on to the train for Manchester. Along the way, there were some beautiful views of the countryside.

From Manchester it was a quick connection to our flight to Copenhagen, then straight to the hotel and bed. A long day.
