I think you can buy weekend first for travel the following day,but no train station booking office will sell you a weekend first on the day.
The reason is that the booking offices would not know how many wanted to buy the weekend up grade on the train.

Nothing on the Weekend First webpage either - BUT as you can only buy them on the train, it would only be usable in the arrival lounge on each journey. Promise to buy probably wouldn't work...

Thanks for posing that question, GWR 158.
I have looked at the GWR website, but it is remarkably light on detail regarding eligibility to use the facility.
However, I would argue that, if you have bought an upgrade to first class, you then become a first class ticket holder - so you are entitled to use GWR's first class lounges.
Unless anyone can show me some small print in their terms and conditions which refutes that?
CfN.

Hi all,
This is a straightforward question, if I purchase a GWR first class weekend upgrade on the train does this entitle me access to the first class lounges at PAD/CDF?
Thank you!
