I'm using possible photo opportunities from the flight as one of the deciding factors for getting to London later this year by plane or train

Thanks
If you're going centre to centre, there is a Virgin train that can do the sprint to Euston in 4hr10mins! The views are excellent through the lakes in the daylight, otherwise getting down to Gatwick area is a royal pain in the *ss, add at least another hour onto any journey time from Euston.
