Simon, the UK has two sleeper trains. That one you have just been on and one to Penzance, on GWR. I travelled on the old mark 3 coaches arojnd 30 years ago in the opposite direction. In those days it was salmon and scrambled eggs for breakfast, in the days of British Rail and Intercity Sleepers. Looks like an improvement.

I thought that... But that train is solely in England. The only UK sleeper is this one! 😂

@@jamesk1806 there are two. Caledonian sleeper goes from various points in Scotland and joins up fully at the border and travels as a king train to Londo, and vice versa. the second one goes from Paddington to Cornwall which are both in England. Simon was on the Caledonian sleeper.

I done this same room/trip last year. Except i started up in Inverness. I absolutely loved it and the price isnt bad considering what you get. I just flew 9 hours on a flight that was double the price of the Caledonian and it wasnt close to the comforts of that train. Great video!

[@charlesjay8818]

To pay £360 one way for a journey of about 350miles is ridiculous, yes you get a bed not a seat but still.

[@SelfMade717]

@@charlesjay8818 Ita not silly at all. We all have different budgets. What's £500 to me might be £20 to you. You done alot of work for nothing there haha.
