I was extremely disappointed to hear that, onboard an 11 car service yesterday, only coach K was designated as first class, with 3 coaches designated as standard premium. This is a ludicrously unbalanced divide between classes and, unless their intention is to end first class travel entirely (which may be the case), it’s something they’ll need to consider going forward.
The new menu is also very disappointing, and nothing compared to the pre-pandemic menus, with a good number of hot and cold options, and a full evening meal available.
