Well I called into the station as I was in town and the chap that sold me the ticket said there was no problem, I could even take 2 with me if I wanted.
Which is what i wanted to hear.

I thought It was right was what we thought.

Yes I tried Sarah too!!!!!!!!!!

I cant see that if I can take them on a normal seated service and this being a seated service (ok a sleeper service with seats)  is there any difference.
So I'm like you waiting for the answer but thinking it should be OK hopefully.

I know, I last travelled on the sleeper in 2006 and took a dog on with me................ But a lot can change in 6 years.

On Fgw's website it really isn't clear about the policy of dogs on the sleeper seated part of the train!!

Hi Everyone,

Not sure if this is the right place for this but here goes,

I have a booked seat on tonight's sleeper train to Paddington from Taunton and I cant seem to find the answer to my question,

I know I cant travel In a berth with a dog, That's fine however there is no mention of being able to travel in the seated carriage with dogs at all and Im wondering if somebody can clarify the situation for me as if I cant travel then I need to get the ticket changed and go on a much later train.
I am waiting for a call from the call centre but that's not until after 2pm

Which as Im going to Newcastle is going to be a right royal pain.

Anybody?Huh

Thank You.
