The Caledonian Sleeper has announced its overnight train journeys from Birmingham International for the first time in 30 years. The new service will be starting from January 2026.
This means that travellers wishing to experience Scotland’s famous sleeper service no longer need to travel to London to board.
With fares starting from just £60 one-way, passengers can enjoy some of the most breathtaking landscapes en route to Fort William, including Ardlui at the head of Loch Lomond, Rannoch, the village of Dalwhinnie and the Bridge of Orchy.
Those opting for the Aberdeen route will be treated to views of the stunning seaside haven of Lunan Bay.
The train journey itself is an experience, winding through beautiful landscapes on the way north.
Onboard, there are rooms with double beds, ensuite bathrooms and breakfast, as well as bunk bed rooms and accessible rooms.
Budget travellers can opt for a less expensive spot in the seated coach, which offers a seat tray table, a footrest, a safe and a sleep kit, along with an individual reading light.
These tickets start from £60.
The service makes Dundee, Inverness, Perth and the Cairngorm National Parks easily accessible for Brummies, with a club car available for late night drinks and snacks, reports Birmingham Live.
You can secure your spot on the Caledonian Sleeper by booking directly through their website.
