Carriages - British Pullman, a Belmond Train

Delight in the elegance of the beautiful British Pullman carriages of the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express luxury train that once ran on the legendary 1920s services such as the Brighton Belle and Golden Arrow.

Each carriage interior is different with exquisite marquetry and plush armchairs. The tables are elegantly dressed with glasses, crisp linen and beautiful flowers.

The British Pullman carriages have their own story to tell. For example, Minerva has Edwardian-type marquetry, Zena was used in the film 'Agatha', while Perseus was reserved for Royalty, visiting Heads of State and as Winston Churchill's funeral carriage.

Details of the British Pullman Carriages are here.

Client Review

The event was a great success and we only had very positive feedback from our Swiss partners and UK guests. They all loved the train, the high quality of the food and the exceptional service. The musicians were a great touch - thank you so much for thinking of it. It made the whole event - you were quite right. The two actors also added an element of fun to the proceedings. All in all, an outstanding event which has set the bar for us very high for the future. Thank you also for your kindness and professionalism - it was a pleasure doing business with you.
