Great Western to Kandy Destination Reviews

LZ
Amazing, the morning trains were almost empty. Sunrise happened 20 minutes after departure, which was very beautiful.

For first class, l feel what is offered is anything but that, no food provided, no water, the aircon was freezing, the chairs were old & falling apart, the bathroom was absolutely disgusting. I would say for the amount of tourists using and paying for this service they need major improvements.
