Overview
- George Kimm documented the London Paddington to Penzance sleeper in a “very cosy” solo cabin featuring a bed, a table that doubles as a sink, a wardrobe and under-bed storage.
- He credited the train’s gentle motion for a peaceful night’s sleep and enjoyed the included breakfast of tea and a sausage bap while watching the countryside.
- Kimm revealed in his reel that he paid £119 for the ticket and an additional £149 for the private cabin.
- The post has drawn about one million views, thousands of likes and over 400 comments, with many users calling the £268 cost “insane” or “criminal” and comparing it to cheaper travel options.
- Published service information notes that GWR also offers standard airline-style seats at no extra charge and single cabins starting from £49.
