I don't know how the Modern Toc's get away with calling any Meal Service PULLMAN, not when you think back to what "Pullman" service USED to stand for.

Dinner on the 15.00 Plymouth-Waterloo? Who runs that train SWT.

Lee:
Just out of interest, how good is the FGW Pullman Breakfast?

I like to keep up with such matters......

That's a London Paddington service!

You've obviously never sampled a Pullman meal on FGW smokey, they may be few and far between but they are very well presented and delivered, proper plates, cutlery and cups with saucers, table cloths etc. Of note, the 0655 from Plymouth to Padd actually starts from Penzance at 0505, the restaurant starts from Plymouth.
