The West Coast Set

'The West Coast Set' is made up of up to include 8 x luxury Mk2f, ex-Virgin West Coast First Class vehicles, giving 42 seats per vehicle. To provide the at seat dinning car service the train will normally consist of either one or two Kitchen cars. This set is identical to 'The Great Briton' but still carries the classic Virgin Trains livery it did until recently, working services between London, Manchester and Glasgow. This livery is still retained being in excellent condition and also matching the Standard Class coaches.

There is normally a dedicated buffet car for 'The West Coast Set'. This being a Mk2 "RFO" air-conditioned coach consisting of 25 Club Class seats with a specific facility to provide a disabled wheelchair space.

The air conditioned carriages are spacious offering large panoramic windows with armchair-style seats with headrest covers. All seats benefit from full-size tables with table lamps.

A Silver Dining car service can be provided, steward-served and chef-prepared food from daily fresh ingredients in fully-equipped onboard kitchens. Trains can be branding and themed with an onboard entertainment option if required.
