Premier Dining Class

Premier Dining Class on our trains is a silver served dining experience providing you with a full meals service at your table, whilst you relax in spacious comfortable seating. The coaches used are British Rail Heritage First Open coaches*.  The Premier Dining service usually includes a traditional full English breakfast soon after you board the train, and a four course meal on the return journey.

Onboard chefs prepare fresh food for all of the meals. We are able to offer vegetarian options but cannot meet other dietary requests.
