Salzburg to Warsaw sleeper

[trebor79]

Has anyone done this route?
Considering using it for work purposes rather than fly back to UK and fly out again the next morning to Warsaw.

What is the noise and comfort like Vs Caledonian sleeper and GWR sleeper?

Is there a restaurant car?

There's no restaurant car. You'll find the train composition here:

That's a proper train! Walking along one like that to get to your coach to board gives you a feel of what night (and some day) trains used to be like. None of this fixed-consist EMU rubbish...

Thanks. What is the comfort and noise level like? I always have earplugs these days anyway but I do struggle to sleep if there's a lot of noise.

IIRC the PKP sleeper compartments are quite OK. I also use ear plugs in night trains. Can't comment on the PKP couchettes.
