B: No, not till 12.50.
A: Oh, that’s all right! Have you got the tickets?
B: No, let’s go along to the booking-office. I want a few magazines and newspapers, so we’ll call at the bookstall on the way.
A: Yes, and I’ve left a bag in the cloakroom: I’ll just slip along there and reclaim it while you get the tickets and newspapers.

A FIRST CLASS EXPERIENCE All cabins fully air conditioned with integral washing facilities. Refreshments are available from the sleeper attendant who is always on hand to provide you with first class assistance. If you travel First Class on the routes between London and Edinburgh, Glasgow, Inverness or Aberdeen, and between Glasgow or Edinburgh and Plymouth most trains have the sleeper lounge service. You can enjoy a relaxing drink or light snack in the evening and sit down to a cooked breakfast the following morning. Many of the First Class sleeper vehicles have now been refurbished new wider mattresses, quieter air-conditioning and brand new carpets and bedding.
EASY TO BOOK- EVEN EASIER TO TRAVEL If you have the Standard ticket you can book a berth in two berth sleeper cabin for just $20. If you hold a First Class ticket you can take a single berth cabin for just $22. A comfortable price to pay for a great night’s rest.

Dear Sir,
I would like some information on rail travel in France.
I’m planning to spend some time there in August with my wife and son (aged 10).
We would really like to travel all over France.
Are there all-inclusive tickets?
Yours faithfully,
John Brown.
