Iconic luxury train to come to Glasgow Central next week
The 1930s-style Northern Belle will leave Glasgow Central Station at 10.55am on Friday, July 11 and at the same time on Sunday, July 13.
It is scheduled to arrive back in the city at 6.20pm.
Both times, passengers will board over a red carpet laid on the station platform before being handed their first glasses of champagne and being served caviar blinis on the luxury trip.
Then, a sumptuous seven-course meal with wine will be served with diners being serenaded by the train's onboard musicians while a conjurer adds his own touch of magic.
The journey will travel across the West Highland line, which, with its stunning scenery of glens, lochs, waterfalls and mountains, has been voted the world's top railway journey.

The train will also pick up passengers from Edinburgh Waverley at 12.40 both days.
The train will do two further trips in August, including one to Oban, and then later in the year, there will be two slap-up Christmas Lunch excursions.
Hollywood actor Bill Nighy described the Northern Belle, once part of the iconic Orient Express set-up, as 'the Grand Dame of luxury travel' when it featured on a Channel 5 TV documentary.
