Night Trains: The Rise and Fall of the Sleeper by Andrew Martin

3.0

I did enjoy this book, especially the awesome cover. That said, it’s made me realise that I am nowhere near as much of a train geek as I thought I was… It was a little tricky to keep up with all of the historical references.

Best part is Andrew’s travelogue from the few remaining European sleepers. I would have loved to have been around during the heyday of sleepers, but the impression I got from this book was that this mode of travel is largely extinct now.

All in all, a decent read!
