Weekend First late on a Friday evening

[Intercity 225]

Hi,

Do any TOCs offer this? I'm thinking post 21:00 when First Class often carries a lot of fresh air.

Thanks

Not that I know of, though if FC is indeed carrying a lot of fresh air you will probably find the availability of First Advances quite good.

I'm sure one of the former operators of the Midland Main Line did many moons ago.

I remember back in the late 1980s/early 1990s that InterCity had some sort of a Weekend Return fare (I cannot remember the exact name) from Wolverhampton, Sandwell & Dudley, Birmingham NS and International, and Coventry to London.

The proviso/condition was that you had to spend a Saturday night in London, however, you could travel outward on a Friday evening or Saturday, and return back on the Sunday. I cannot remember if it was Standard Class only, or whether it was both First and Standard. The price was around £10 at the time.
