Do sleepers make money, or are they major loss makers?
Just out of intrest really, I was wondering if there was a market for a Continental Sleeper from London with portians splitting, say for Madrid via Barcalona, the Alps via the Riviaria, Berlin. I would call it the Night Continental!
Even better for the atmosphere and publicity if we head the first leg to the channel tunnel with a Steam Locomotive from Victoria. (now i'm really dreaming.)
Then, Jazz music would be played softly by a live band in the resturant car. When the train reached the channel tunnel, a TRAXX locomotive would take it over.
next day each passenger will wake up at their destination.
Why does a continental sleeper not exist?
