Title: Shortest journey to use the sleeper? Post by: grahame on February 27, 2017, 19:30:26 From GWR booking engine ...
Quote Looking to travel on the Night Riviera sleeper from Taunton to Yeovil Pen Mill? Whether you choose a single or twin cabin, you’ll have a comfortable bed and duvet, wash basin with shaver point, towel, bottled water, personally controlled lighting and air conditioning. A cafe and free Wi-Fi are also available. Seems a lot of facilities for 32 minutes on the sleeper! Route offered - Taunton, Exeter St David's, Yeovil Junction, Yeovil Pen Mill.

For the journey grahame quoted above, the fare offered is a Anytime Day Single (Route Not Via Bristol) at £17.10. The booking engine doesn't offer a berth. Maybe there is a minimum travel distance?

But it doesn't offer a berth as an option on the booking screen.

Otherwise it would have been nothing notable This page is printed from the "Coffee Shop" forum at http://gwr.passenger.chat which is provided by a customer of Great Western Railway.
