| May 22, 2019 at 15:21 | comment | added | Muzer | @PraphullaKoushik I will write an answer which goes into more detail about rail ticketing. | |
| May 22, 2019 at 15:18 | comment | added | Muzer | @PraphullaKoushik Whichever option you choose though, you should just need to buy one ticket for the whole journey from Oxford to Edinburgh - you don't need to buy separate tickets for separate train companies; the ticketing is all integrated for rail. | |
| May 22, 2019 at 15:17 | comment | added | Muzer | @PraphullaKoushik most rail journey planners will show both options. Going via London would involve getting a train to London Paddington, catching the London Underground to King's Cross, and catching a train from there to Edinburgh. The trains themselves will be pretty fast but the time crossing London could add significantly to the journey. Going via Birmingham you would catch a CrossCountry train to Birmingham or (I would recommend) Wolverhampton (it's an easier station to change at), then catch a Virgin Trains service from there to Edinburgh. | |

| May 22, 2019 at 15:15 | comment | added | Muzer | Perhaps worth adding details on excursions to places further afield especially from Edinburgh by rail, as there's lots of places a tourist might like to visit that aren't in Edinburgh. | |
| May 22, 2019 at 15:15 | comment | added | Praphulla Koushik | @henning so you think is a better way from Oxford to Edinburgh is not through London but to go to Birmingham. If possible can you please tell how to go from Birmingham | |
| May 22, 2019 at 15:13 | comment | added | hmakholm left over Monica | London will be a definite detour when going from Oxford to Edinburgh by train, tough. It's generally faster to take a train from Oxford towards Birmingham and change there (or sometimes further north). | |
