SLEEPER SERVICES

Information on journeys providing sleeper services

Introduction

Sleepers enable you to make long distance journeys while having a relaxing night's sleep. You arrive early at your destination, saving a day's travel - or the early morning dash to the airport. Five Sleeper routes link London Euston with most principal business and holiday locations in Scotland. Direct Sleeper services also link Southwest England with London Paddington. Customers joining at the starting point of the train may occupy cabins well before departure. At terminating stations customers may vacate cabins up to approximately 0800 on trains which arrive at an earlier time.

Sleeper services operate nightly Sunday to Friday. There is no sleeper service on a Saturday night.

Room Service

Sleepers have full air-conditioning and fingertip temperature control. Each cabin has wall-to-wall carpet, mirror, shaver sockets, drinking water - as well as hot water for the washbasin, and a comfortable bed.

Steward(ess) service is available at the touch of a button throughout the journey. In the morning, pre-arranged morning calls will be given with complimentary morning newspaper, orange juice, croissant, preserve and tea or coffee in single berth cabins, or tea or coffee and biscuits in 2 berth cabins.

On First ScotRail's Caledonian Sleepers there is a complimentary breakfast of orange juice, cereal, croissant, preserve, muesli bar and tea or coffee for customers travelling in single berth cabins. In two-berth cabins the complimentary breakfast will consist of croissant, preserve, tea, coffee or orange juice.

Holders of First Class tickets enjoy a single berth cabin on payment of the First Class reservation supplement. There are specific packages available which include the Sleeper berth supplement. Holders of all Standard travel tickets travel in a 2 berth cabin on payment of the standard supplement, except for specific packages that are inclusive of Sleeper reservations.
