@dalecharmantravels8057 did you get a seat? The only time I ever upgraded to first class from KGX to NCL with my wife last year, all the trains were to pot & we were full & standing until York. No sign of any staff though I think they'd have struggled to get through the train. It was a shame but we did get a full refund eventually.

Nice one Dale. Last time I did the Sleeper, it left over 2 hrs late & couldn't access 1st Class lounge, as closed! Like you, I'm a bad sleeper and those cabins are warm! Did well trying out the top bunk and shower! When lived in Glasgow, I used to travel by sleeper, so I'd have the full day to enjoy London. Now live near Alnmouth, so be good to hear about your Edinburgh to London journey! Your face(I'd be the same) when you didn't get your bacon and egg roll! Yes, I'd probably do the Sleeper again in the future, but now tend to travel during the day. Looking fine, all the best, thanks for sharing! 😊 👍

Lovely video again Dale. I'm sure a few who comment here are green with envy with your lifestyle, I mean the freedom to go there and back to Scotland on a luxury train and then to hop on a plane to Hong Kong! Plus all those other trips you go on PLUS you drive a tube train! I'd love to do all that but things such as a boring 9-5 job, a loving wife, parents at my beck and call + having to see the in-laws and all the stuff that goes with it means it can't possibly do what you do. What is it they say? 'Living My Best Life?' Well you've cornered the market Dale and all the best to you!

Out of all the video reviews of this train, yours is simply the best. Why? Because it consists solely of raw footage where you directly talk to the camera, with no text, voiceovers or annoying background music that are present in so many other videos. Above that, I like how open & honest you are about your experience onboard. Sorry to hear about your lack of sleep, hope it goes better next time. Thanks for producing awesome content dale, looking forward to seeing your future travel videos. Cheers.

Hi. Dale. I hope you have or had a fun trip to Hong Kong. When my sisters and I came over to the Uk years ago we drove from London to Edinburgh. It took us ten hours but we stopped on the way to see touristy stuff. We came up there to see the Edinburgh Festival. We rented an appartment. We had fun. SORRY you got tossed around in the night. Gee I remember thats how it was on the underground trains sometimes. I take it you would rather be a Tube driver than a National Rail Train Driver. Thanks for answering my other questions.

Loved this video Dale! I'm fascinated by the sleeper trains. Nearest I get to it though is when I see the southbound sleeper running very late at Crewe. It looks quite luxurious, compact and well designed use of the space. I had a feeling noise would be a problem when trying to sleep though. Cost isn't exactly cheap but it's a premium way of traveling a long distance.

Thanks Dale. It's great to see a less "polished" video and review of the Caledonian Sleeper. Somehow "us lot " being swung around in the go-pro makes it seem more real and less like a commercial. So many other KZbinrs have only good things to say and this (or pretty much any other) service but you highlight some of the problems instead of just saying everything is amazing. The Cornish Riviera sleeper is supposed to be much better in just about every way so I hope to see you try that next (unless you already have - I'll check). For me, I wouldn't pay that much for what you had. In fact, I wouldn't pay half that! A sleeper train where it's almost impossible to sleep (it's not just you) isn't really worth it, is it?

At one time on standard class sleepers, U could share a cabin with a stranger and if unfortunate circumstances crop up, not necessary with the same sex(obviously would be sorted) but has been known to happen. Unfortunately you were in first room in carriage right above the bogie, anyone else going on sleeper should ask to be relocated to a cabin more in centre of the coach.

Dale, really enjoyed this video and your other videos. I do like that you used a wireless mic; however, did you use it with the noise cancellation? The audio sounds a bit off (like you're in a tunnel or something). Either way, keep them coming! Also, not sure I would do this journey myself. I think you said it was ~£300 for you, would it be double that for 2 people? If so, that might be worth it if I was traveling that way, but I don't think I'd go out of my way to do this train. Thanks!

Well Dale first time we have slept and showers together but the experience was all together favourable now as for Caledonian sleeper I must agree with all that you said, did you ever travel on the old mk3 sleeper coaches because i found they were much more comfortable compared to the new ones, but as I find none of the new age rolling stock can compare to the mk3 design, anyway great video and nice legs sexy ha ha thanks mate happy travels I'll be watching you, mark d

For that price, I would have taken a plane. Much quicker, and if you find a cheap ticket, save that for a nice hotel if you need that, instead of spending so much on the train. I mean if it were one the long haul trains like what you find in the US, or other places, paying the price is usually worth it, unless offcourse you take the Orient Express, but the price there is a bit different to say the least.

Crikey ! 300 quid for THAT ? Glad to have seen it, but now that I have, definitely not for me. Any average height person would be unable to get comfortable in such a short bed, and the whole thing seems oppressive and quite claustrophobic. You're definitely a glutton for punishment, Dale. 😂

Unfortunately, my granddaughter had a very difficult and traumatic event (with excessive dark “bureaucracy”). A beautiful house with a copper bath was discovered near this area. The woman told us that the Fosse septic tank was completely blocked. We were charged 2,500 euros for emptying the tank! The woman who sold us the house told us that she had completely emptied the septic tank a year before, which turned out to be false! At the official reception point we discovered that the septic tank had not been emptied since 1987.
