In 2021, I took the Caledonian Sleeper train between Edinburgh and London, but how does it compare to flying?

Have you ever been on a sleeper train before? Would you recommend it?

@NotKyleChicago Год назад

No "Snaptacle" footage? 😉😎

@ThePixel1983 Год назад

@ragnkja Год назад

The most relaxing way to travel long distances, assuming you don’t have to get off the train in the middle of the night. Getting a compartment is definitely a lot more comfortable than a chair, even if they do supply you with a blanket, face mask and ear plugs.

@EdwardMason9000 Год назад

I used that exact train last year, albeit in Classic Sleeper rather than Club Class. Classic doesn't come with any shower facilities and there's a communal loo, but you get your own sink. The room looks about the same size and you don't get a full breakfast, just a cuppa and one of those Porridge bars. I found that I was the same and woke up approximately once an hour, probably through the train stopping or bouncing around, but still better than what I would've got in a seat. I'd definitely recommend it as a unique and low carbon way to travel if you're short on time, but book early as the cheaper cabins can go fast!

@ChaplinONLINE Год назад

I travelled on the Caledonian sleeper from Euston to Glasgow. Of the 8 hour journey I slept around 20 minutes, combined with a fire alarm due to ice on a sensor and late leaving Euston meaning the train went faster, making more noise and vibrations. If I was travelling further north into Scotland I would try the sleeper again, but between Glasgow/Edinburgh to Euston, it just isn't long enough to justify the price and experience.

The Caledonian Sleeper is always a delight and the new carriages are loads better than the old ones. It’s about the same cost as flying into London then getting a hotel for the night. But my main takeaway from this is learning that there’s a sleeper to Cornwall, definitely need to try that out!

@barvdw Год назад

Those are old Mk4 carriages, but fully remodeled a few years ago. I think their riding qualities are superior to the new Mk5s on the Caledonian, but both are pretty great. Best going towards Cornwall, though, arrival time in London is just too early.

Sleeper trains are common here in Russia. It was certainly fun to see Matt experience something that feels banal to me (lying down in a train and looking out the window), but at the same time do so with considerably more luxury. We have the option for a separate room, but a tiny bathroom in each room? incredible

@annsuma28 Год назад

If you get a compartment like Matt did, sleeper trains are incredibly comfortable. The gentle motion of the train rocks you to sleep.

@barvdw Год назад

@@ragnkja Caledonian sleeper won't sell separate bunks (anymore), so you'll be either alone, or together with the person with whom you booked it with. That makes it somewhat expensive (and British trains aren't the cheapest as it is), but it is quite comfortable, yes. British trains are small, though, so it will be a bit more cramped than your average continental sleeper train, but it is very well though out. I'm 2 m tall, and can fit in it fine enough. If you really want to splurge, there is an option for a full bedroom, but I don't dare to look at those prices...

@yhubtfufvcfyfc Год назад

If you sleep well in this kind of situation I would absolutely recommend it. In Sweden at least you can also find really cheap tickets for a much more cramped cabin shared by 4 people which is great for me as a student. Probably not for everyone though.

@ragnkja Год назад

In Norway they did away with that sort of shared compartment decades ago, so you either have to get a compartment with two bunks (which I and my then-boyfriend did a few times) or you have to make do with a reclining chair (which I’ve done when travelling alone). The chair was decent enough that I managed to get a bit of sleep even though I generally don’t manage to sleep in cars or similar, but the compartment was definitely way more comfortable. One is like trying to sleep in the front passenger seat of a car, whereas the other is a bed that gently rocks you to sleep.

@sirBrouwer Год назад

I think it well also help if you do it a few times. then you get more used to all the noises and bumping. it's the same like sleeping on a ferry. at first you will have trouble sleeping but the more you do it the more you might be able to sleep very well.

I've only done a sleeper train trip once, and that was from Chicago to LA on the Amtrak Southwest Chief. It's a three-ish day journey, which makes the sleeper car option very much worth it, even though it's a lot. Nice thing about the Amtrak sleepers is that your meals are included, and they're pretty nice. I definitely want to do it again, next time I have the vacation time to really commit to it...the train trip itself is as much a part of the vacation as the destination.

I used to get the sleeper from Oxford to Edinburgh after meetings / weekend parties. That service has long gone and I'd heard that the new service from to/from London had been upgraded. What surprised me most was that the upper bunk (and ladder) was there. They used to fold them away when there was only one occupant (which was the default in 1st class). The private loo was nicer than walking to the end of the carriage but I don't think I'd ever be bothered getting up early enough to use the shower. (They used to have shower facilities at the stations for those who wanted them.) But I just checked on the prices! I'll give it a miss. As a kid I went on a couple of school trips (to Austria and Switzerland) where they had compartments seating six people. In the evening the train staff turned up and somehow turned each side of the compartment into 3 tier bunk beds - yes 6 of us in one cabin. A little cramped but not that uncomfortable. Not sure what it would have felt like if I'd been traveling with complete strangers rather than my class from school.

I was on a sleeper train occasionally when i was young (mid-late 90s). It had closed compartments like this one, but within it weren't any shower or toilet. Instead it had benches that doubled as beds, with two more beds that were folded up above. It wasn't my most comfortable sleep ever, but for young me it was an adventure. Watching this brought back vivid memories.

@notroll1279 Год назад

I took a sleeper train from Berlin to Munich several years ago, with the car loaded on as well. It was an interesting experience ... to load up the car, you had to be there more than an hour before departure. Half an hour after leaving Berlin, the train stopped on some sidetrack for an hour or two - apparently, the distance of 550 km is too short for a train to roll all night. Felt a bit eerie.... Breakfast was in the dining car and alright, the unloading took quite a while, too. It was pretty pricey and just barely justifiable as we got a steep discount for booking way ahead, but that made it rather unflexible. Apparently too many Berliners took the discounted tickets, so Deutsche Bahn shut down those trains from Berlin a few years after my trip.

@geoff5623 Год назад

I did Seattle to Oakland in a sleeper, which was about 23 hours (after Vancouver to Seattle the morning before, and a night in Seattle since the train times didn't allow a direct transfer). It replaced a night in a hotel at my destination compared to flying out the day before (and included meals), so the price wasn't much more, and it was a pleasant day relaxing either in the lounge car or my cabin.

@MrJordanSDean Год назад

When I went on Cal Sleeper they folded the top bunk out the way as i was single occupancy like you. Disappointing they're not applying the same attention to detail these days. Edit: noticed it was Nov '21, maybe (hopefully) they're presenting the train a bit better these days.

@alexd9432 Год назад

When was it you went? They got new trains in 2019 and from memory with these both the beds are fixed so the top one can no longer get folded away. There are though a very small amount of rooms with a double bed but they are even more expensive.

The room itself is plenty big enough for me, since I'm under 6ft in height.

During my national service in Sweden we used to travel by sleeper from Stockholm to northern Sweden.

Us height-wise societally challenged folks (I'm also 193/6'4) must stick together! (Even though it gets cramped!) But I suspect you being on your feet all day made you about an inch shorter (it happens to us, and we re-elongate when lying down), which helped you fit. Otherwise, sleep on your left side (stomach acid), and bend your knees. I used to visit family all the time taking a sleeping ferry, and the beds were 185cm.😅

I've been on the Caledonian Sleeper a couple of times and overall I found it to be a bit disappointing. The second time was Euston-Glasgow last year in a classic cabin without the en-suite. Very little sleep on that one. Just before the pandemic I did Euston to Fort William. I'd booked a club room and was upgraded to a Caledonian Double. Despite a nice double(ish) bed I didn't really sleep tat all until we left Edinburgh where the train splits at something like half four in the morning. I then managed a few hours before waking up and getting into what was unfortunately a cold shower. The problem with the new carriages is they give a very rattly, bouncy and noisy ride. They look great, the cabins fit a lot into a small space and the staff were lovely but the main thing about a sleeper should be that it facilitates a decent night's sleep. On the plus side, having breakfast whilst travelling over a snowy Rannoch Moor on the West Highland Line was magnificent and that experience alone made the journey worthwhile.
