What are the differences between a Single, Double, T2, and couchette on overnight trains?
Sleeper accommodations vary according to amenities and the number of people occupying the compartment. Single compartments are 1st Class sleepers. Doubles can be 1st Class or 2nd Class, depending on the country. The amenities offered are basically the same, and include a lock on the door, an electrical outlet, a washbasin, and a luggage storage area. Single compartments have one berth, or bunk; Doubles have two berths (normally 1 upper and 1 lower). A T2 is a special, 2nd Class compartment that’s basically a smaller version of a Double. 2nd Class rates apply. A couchette (pronounced “koo-SHET”) is normally only in 2nd Class. A couchette accommodates 6 passengers, male and female, and offers no amenities.
