    I’m much more a bacon butty person, premier dining would be wasted on me.

    So this isn't on anymore? Shame! [ATTACH] You know you're in the right place when you get lost looking for one spot, only to find another and the only other car there belongs to Joan and Bob!

    Thanks, very useful. Standard seems a better bet.

    It's a while since I've travelled with Saphos but I'm considering booking on a Fellsman later in the year. Please can anyone help, is First Class (non-dining) located in "proper" coaches with toplights?

    CET have already been fitted. I’m unaware of any plan to fit CDL. They have an exemption but it limits speed to 25mph; not really significant when line speed is only 30mph.
