Vintage Trains, the 21st century’s only charitably-controlled train operating company, is back where it belongs – at speed, on the main line. We have enhanced our old steam train experience with a high-quality dining experience, varied menus, authentic Pullman coaches and 75mph of record-breaking speed up hills and racing by castles. Imagine being whisked away by the smell of freshly-cooked bacon and eggs on your great British breakfast or sipping a glass of Champagne over a four course dinner, all on a steam-hauled, old fashioned express train!
