This is a great map of the night train services across Europe.

They vary significantly in levels of comfort and price, but there’s a lot to check out. Shame this new service didn’t work out.

Real pity. It was an important idea that should have gotten a chance.

As far as I know those services are barely breaking even, using the few remaining old sleeper wagons. Growth of them is not likely because new wagons cost a lot and profitability is low.
