Venice-Naples Overnight Train in Double Sleeper
What is the difference between the "double" sleeper and the "2T" on the overnight train? I have travelled on overnight trains before, but always with groups of people where we reserved the entire couchette car. I am travelling with only my husband this year, and we have reserved the double sleeper for the sake of privacy. Can anyone describe the experience for me - pros and cons? (My husband is not fond of flying, and I have been unable to persuade him to make the short hop on Alitalia - so the train it is.) <BR> <BR>Thanks.

I've taken a few sleeper cars (3) and they were all the same. I'm not sure if there's 1st class and 2nd class. We had a small compartment with 2 bunks on one side (one above the other) and a little sink at the end by the window. Each compartment had its own heating control and a lock on the door. There seemed to be enough space for luggage (under the bunk, a few racks) but we just had backpacks and maybe another small bag. The beds were comfortable and had sheets, a pillow and blankets. Personally, I love taking sleeper cars! The compartments are somewhat small but they're cozy and romantic. The trips I took were Milan-Paris and Munich-Florence. I have no idea what "2T" is.
