Kilty on the Caledonian Sleeper
@straphanger
Those Nightstar coaches make me so sad - a symbol of what could have been the future of European railway travel.
Killed by low cost airlines and staked through the heart by jingoism and isolationism.
Still, it's great they got a second chance, and are still providing a valuable service.
Heat.

Sleeper train with a toddler was excellent last night. She slept for 7 hours straight, and I probably slept for 6 of those. And that’s sharing a narrow single bunk.

Some of the train people here will probably like this Caledonian Sleeper plush locomotive…
Also interesting to see the filled washbag (sometimes) given to Club Room and Double Room passengers, is valued at £40!

Last night, I caught a sleeper train from Vienna to Hamburg. This time, I travelled in one of ÖBB NightJet’s new Mini Cabins: one-person compartments, similar in concept to a Japanese capsule hostel pod.
Here are my impressions. (tl;dr: I strongly recommend it and would do it again.)

Trip to #berlin was a long #CrossBorderRail journey from #Cardiff. How I wish there was proper through ticketing!
#Nightjet #sleepertrain is more 'fun adventure' than super-comfortable. Didn't get much sleep. Might consider day train next time.
@seatsixtyone was a great source of info around ticketing & station guides. Why don't major stations provide comfortable seating for all?
Good morning, #Victoria! How's your weekend in The Education State? #SleeperTrain #XPT
Sometimes having an ethical compass isn't great. Right now I could be putting up the tray table ready to land in wanker coffee Central. Instead I get to spend the night at the mercy of NSW Trains. But look out the window at the mountains and the forests and you will be rewarded... and reminded why I'm taking the great southern goat track and not the red roo. #SleeperTrain #XPT #Joyced #Melbourne
@freyfogle Sounds great! I really want to try the Caledonian Sleeper.

#HongKong’s new #HighSpeed #SleeperTrains launched in summer 2024 and while they aren’t quite as fast as flying, or daytime #BulletTrains, what they do offer is a night’s rest. #CNN takes a trip on the new service from #Beijing which offers a perfect weekend getaway.

There are Wales warnings in rail areas Viking and German Bight as I set off again #NotFlying from Sweden to Britain.
Two night trains and a day ferry in between. 45 hours door to door is kind of leisurely, but resilient with luck. Schedule has already survived the total cancellation of all fast catamaran ferry services from Malmö to Rostock, and a 90-minute retiming of the Berlin–Brussels #SleeperTrain.
New at my Patreon... Approaching the end of 2024, I've tallied my nights on sleeper trains this year. They add up to 11 - and here are the trains I slept on:
