The sleeper train

The Sleeper train

 

 

Summer time.

 

Time for holiday

 

lots of delays  and queues  at the airport

 

 

Passengers facing four-hour security queues at some European airports

 

Why not take the train

 

now that is what I did yesterday

 

Wonderful - -  a Sleeper train

 

 

Arrive at night at the train station

 

get into the sleeping wagon

 

And fall asleep

 

wake up in the next morning

 

after having travelled hundreds of miles

 

Such delight with a cup of coffee from the lovely train attendant

 

time now for holiday

The Sleeper Train<br /> An aunt of mine used to take the sleeper train from Birmingham to Dunoon to holiday at the Methodist Guest House.Not sure if the guest house still exists, but presumably the sleeper train still does ?<br /> Still visitng the blog Jack, miss you on Duolingo and the other language learners, that small amount of human communication was a good motivational element. It's departure has diminished the expierence.
