sleeper trains
Berth-equipped rail travel
Sleeper trains are passenger trains equipped with beds or berths for overnight travel.
Passengers board in the evening and wake up at their destination, combining transportation with accommodation.
Routes typically connect distant cities where the journey takes eight to twelve hours: We took the sleeper train from London to Edinburgh.
Sleeper cars range from basic couchettes with bunk beds to private compartments with full amenities.
