Finally got through to someone very helpful at GWR and they have booked it for me over the phone. Thanks to all for the help and advice on this thread.

Thanks a lot. I’m going to ask them to try that.

New Cafe on P5 and the P6 stuff is about to be started on as well to bring it up to the same standard as P5.

Just booked my first trip on caledonian sleeper. Fort William to Crewe in a week. Very expensive, but thought why not as a treat. Will be comparing with interest to the VR sleepers I have used extensively in Finland.

Cheers guys

Hi all, Looking at buying a sleeper cabin for me and my girlfriend on the above journey. Current price is £330 for travel and the cheapest cabin. She will have a valid interrail pass, and I have Rail Staff Online Leisure Card (although I believe for some bizarre reason this is not accepted on...

Wouldn't expect much recruitment in Birmingham area signallers for a while now as they won't be backfilling trainee roles this year.

food regulations mean they can’t sell food/drink if there’s nowhere for the staff to wash their hands (or that’s what they have told me before anyway)
