Appreciate a little back to the posts of a few weeks ago. Finally travelled on sleeper in new guise and share thoughts. Staff are the same as scotrail, just with better uniforms. Travel pack less but more than adequate. Dinner in lounge - just wanted chese and bits - ran out as 3 served - soup ok but over microwaved. Menu advertised was not in offer - no duck or lamb - jus haggis or macaroni cheese
Breakfast was the big change, host directed against highland breakfast as only a half sausage ! Ordered smoked salmon and scrambled egg - served 1.5 hours prior to arrival as it took "so long" to prepare new menus. Looked horrid served in box made of the same cardboard as hospital bedpan, egg would have bounced so overlooked, salmon great except for presentation. Stale bread role and juice.
Aside from this good trip except for fire alarms going off at Carlisle, bedding good and staff grand. May be good signs - just needs to seek out customer feedback and act on it - not sure when this will start...
