Destinations are a problem. Where do you put the train during the layover? Do you need to turn the loco, and if so, is there anywhere local to do it? York and Carlisle are popular as destinations for that reason, but they're on busy routes so...

Are the windows clean? :) If I lived in the area, that's the sort of trip I think I could convince my other half to go on. Surely that model can't be impossible to replicate elsewhere? Tom

Exactly that. I've not been on a rail tour in this country (have done a few in NZ and Australia) but whenever I look at what the market is offering, I reckon I would have zero chance of persuading Mrs J^2 to travel - and she is minded to like...

Absolutely. Businesses run on hard cash, and if 90% of their passengers want dining then they will pay for it. I wouldn’t be looking to please a minority in comparison to a Majority in a business.
