🇬🇧 This time, we ride one of Britain’s proud sleeper trains: the Night Riviera Express!
Departing from London Paddington, it takes about 8 hours overnight to reach Penzance, the far western tip of Cornwall.
🚆There are only two sleeper trains in the UK — the other being the Caledonian Sleeper to Scotland, which I rode last time.
From London all the way to what feels like “the edge of the world” — Penzance is perhaps a place I might never have visited without this train.
Please enjoy this uniquely British overnight rail journey!
