    But don't all their trains always operate full? The only difference I can see is how fast they fill up. I've never heard of them discounting or dishing out coupons unlike some others. They have clearly hit on a formula which works. Meanwhile I...

    Yes. On SD, if you are a solo passenger you can travel at a table for four for £245. whereas on Saphos you are on a table for two for £305. So it's dreamland for me ; let's see what the others offer.

    Do the Saphos plus Steam Dreams add up to a complete programme? Might there be more to come? My reaction was-- is that it?
