Caledonian sleeper booking query

[philjo]

I booked a 1st class sleeper single via the scotrail website last night. (Euston to fort william) - first time I have booked the sleeper.

The booking confirmation email I received says it is Coach G cabin 13 but then says the booking is for the lower berth.
As I was booking a 1st single it should be a single cabin or does it usually state lower berth for 1st class bookings?

There was also some small print on the booking confirmation screen after payment was made saying 1st class not available for the journey (but not shown on the confirmation email) - though it let me book the 1st sleeper single. Has it booked me into a 1st cabin or a standard one?

G is definitely the 1st class carriage on the Fort William sleeper and it will say the lower berth but the upper berth will be folded away. I've also noticed when you book online that it says 1st class not available for the journey. Maybe that's referring to seated accommodation.

Thanks for that Furgus2.

No problem, I travelled north on it Tuesday night and back south again tonight. Personally, I think you've just about got the best position in the carriage, one of the berths in the middle
