火車在晚上 11:20 啟程,我們從旅館 check out,
先把行李拉到 Euston Station 寄放。每件行李索價8.50英鎊。
火車開動前,再去取行李,每個人依車號上自己的車廂。
我訂的是 single, 一個人的臥鋪。掀開左邊的檯板,底下是洗手檯。
臥鋪裡沒有廁所,也沒有淋浴設施。
早晨六點多,車掌敲門,送早餐,有熱茶、牛角麵包。吃完早餐,該下車了。
以下是我們出發前的準備,供大家未來旅行時參考:
臥舖火車(sleeper) London → Glasgow
(禮拜五 5/06,台灣早上七點鐘開始上網訂,
或打電話訂 07:00-22:00 daily, UK time,英國比台灣慢七小時)
我試了三個晚上,在網路上訂臥舖(sleeper),都訂不成功。
今晚特地打電話去,小姐說:這禮拜五才開放訂 7/24 的票。
大家請注意,可以先在網路上練習訂看看,把英文看清楚,
等禮拜五就可正式訂(要趕快啊,免得訂不到票)
啟程 London(Euston Station):7/24晚上 23:27
抵達 Glasgow(Central):翌晨7/25 - 7:18
訂:one way

Overseas visitors to Britain often find the Caledonian Sleepers
ideal for travel between London & Scotland. It's a unique British
experience and it saves a hotel bill, too.
Just book online using the booking form above, as www.thetrainline.com
can now sell tickets to travellers from overseas at UK prices.
Bookings open 9-12 weeks before departure, you can't book
before reservations open! To book a sleeper, not just a reclining
seat, make sure that the fare you choose has a 'bed' symbol next
to it. Tickets won't be sent outside the UK, so select the option to
collect tickets from the self-service machines at London Euston station
or any main British station you nominate.
You will just need your booking reference and the same credit card
you used to make the booking. If you have any difficulty booking
online, you can also book via an international phone call(也可打電話訂)
to ScotRail telesales on +44 1752 675 670. Phone lines
are open 07:00-22:00 daily, UK time.
台灣時間 減 7小時 = 英國時間
All major credit cards are accepted and you should ask to collect
tickets at the station before departure or whenever you get to the UK.
