    Default Sharing with stranger on Scotland-London sleeper train to be banned

    "Sharing with stranger on Scotland-London sleeper train to be banned

    Sharing with a stranger on Scotland-London sleeper trains is to be banned from next month – with lone passengers facing a 65 per cent fare hike. ...

    However, from 26 February, they will have to pay for a separate room, with fares starting at £140 compared to £85 to share. ..."

    I have only used the Inverness - London sleeper twice (quite a few years ago) when travelling second class meant that passengers might have to share, the first time there wasn't anyone else in the cabin but the second time there was (a complete stranger), which seemed weird.

    Removing the sharing option and the resulting price hike, might well deter some people from using a sleeper cabin.
