The Anadolu
Ekspresi (Anatolia Express),
departs Istanbul and Ankara at
22:00 (10 pm) hauling Pullman
seat cars, a couchette car,
and a dining car.
It
arrives in the opposite city 8-1/2
hours later at 06:38 am. A
one-way ticket in a Pullman seat
costs TL21.50,
slightly more in a couchette
compartment.
If you'd rather have the full comfort
of a private
sleeping comparment with
a proper bed, the Ankara
Ekspresi, an all-sleeping-car train,
departs a half-hour after the Anadolu
Ekspresi.
Here's
a full list of Istanbul - Ankara
trains.
Click
here for info on how and where
to buy tickets in advance.
Both the Ankara and Istanbul (Haydarpasa)
stations have decent restaurants in
which you can have a good, moderately-priced
dinner before boarding the train.
Please read this
safety notice about sleeping
car travel.
