Who Are We

First Class Escapes

At First Class Escapes, we are transforming a 1950s MK1 train carriage into a unique Airbnb. We’re passionate about providing guests with the chance to experience a piece of railway history while enjoying a relaxing, unique getaway. A first class escape in a second class carriage.

Our Train Journey 

We currently have a GoFundMe in place for railway enthusiasts who are passionate about seeing this piece of heritage preserved and for those who are in a position to support the restoration process. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who chooses to contribute and support us.

Coming Summer 2027!

None of this would be possible without the incredible support we’ve had along the way. We would like to thank our family who have worked tirelessly beside us throughout this whole process, from helping with the big jobs to supporting our crazy ideas. We honestly couldn’t have done any of this without them. We also want to thank everyone who has followed the journey on social media. Your enthusiasm, encouragement, and kind messages have kept our morale high during some of the tougher renovation moments. Every bit of support means more than you know and we’re so excited to keep sharing this journey with you all.
