Dear Sir,

I write to compliment all concerned on the excellent service provided by the Pullman Dining Car Express from Thurso to Invergordon. The scenery was also excellent, being better than that which we had seen from our cruise liner en route to Scrabster and again after Invergordon. We Americans were particularly intrigued by the dinky Cotton grass at Forsinard and all the Yellow Leas south of Helmsdale.

May I share the menu with you for the benefit of those who have not yet sampled this train?

I tell you it was better than the Venice-Simplon Orient Express! Then I woke up. I was pleasantly surprised to still be at Rogart! It seems I had boarded the train in the other platform. Those sleeperzzz sure give you a good night!
