Other info:

Breakfast options included a bacon roll, a croissant and I think there was porridge as well.

The Penzance to London sleeper leaves Penzance at 21:45 and arrives into London Paddington at 05:04. Passengers with sleeper accommodation may remain on board until 06:45.

Seated passengers have access to a buffet car style counter service offering drinks and light refreshments. The on board lounge is only accessible for passengers with sleeper accommodation.

Upon arrival at Penzance, there is a sleeper lounge that passengers with sleeper accommodations may use. The lounge is similar, albeit smaller, than the one seen at London Paddington.
