Fancy a jaunt on a Pullman car?

Do enjoy these little adverts pulled up from the not so recent past. Any idea what the relative percentage upcharge was, i.e. what did a 3rd class ticket cost circa 1925-1945?

Other than refreshments, what other luxuries were on offer to the soon to be pampered 3rd class traveller in the Pullmans?

Better seats, DiveC; there was just one coach in each set - they never ran together. A Pulman 3rd seat was much the same as a god 2nd class seat in an ordinary carriage. I'm not sure about fares - I must see if I can dig out information...
