New £150m Caledonian Sleeper trains
New £150m Caledonian Sleeper trains 'are hotels on wheels'.
The new £150m fleet of Caledonian Sleeper trains has been unveiled - with travellers being promised an overnight stay in "a hotel on wheels". From June, 75 new carriages will offer en-suite double rooms for the first time. There will be 484 rooms available, initially on the Lowlander route between London and Glasgow/Edinburgh. They will be followed by a Highlander route between London and Aberdeen, Inverness and Fort William. The new trains hark back to an era of luxury overnight travel between Scotland and London. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-47887656 |
It will be well out of my price range, and a lot of other OAP's price range as well.

They have been built by a company called Construcciones y Auxiliar de Ferrocarriles (CAF). Looks like a great way to travel- one day maybe! Tony |
