 Angry Why oh why is the Cornish Sleeper always the poor relation compared to Scottish Sleepers - you can book berth inclusive tickets online through Scotrail (trainline operated) website but not N Riv. through FGW▸ (First Great Western) (trainline operated) website. Anyone know why - after all they are all First Group companies !

I was thinking that last week! I'm going to get an all line rover in the summer this is valid on the scotts sleeper you still have to pay the berth rate but not the ticket price, is it the same with this one?

The up sleeper has a long wait at Exeter now as it departs Penzance much earlier than it used to.
