I live in germany. Every single time I take a longer trip, I look for overnight train options. I have never in my life used a sleeper train because they either don't exist on that route or are so much more expensive I'd rather do the less comfortable option. I would love to love sleeper trains.

Same here, every time I was driving train at night in germany. I rarely was in a sleeper train and if I was. Only in the normal seating compartments. They are just way to expensive. I sometimes look for fun what a flight would cost. And mostly its more than the half...

And don't get me started with train driving to other European countries
