About Belmond British Pullman

The Belmond British Pullman takes its name from an American, George Mortimer Pullman, who built The Pioneer in 1864, the first railway carriage designed with true comfort for the passenger. The British Pullman has carried Royalty and Heads of State around Great Britain.

The London luxury train Belmond British Pullman forms part of the route (in the UK) of the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, the world's most famous train. Being the sister train to the Venice Simplon Orient-Express lunch and other dining is a very special experience. Most journeys are behind diesel engines; there are some steam trains. The Belmond British Pullman has classic 'orient express' style.

Accommodation

Delight in the elegance of the beautiful Belmond British Pullman carriages of the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express that once ran on the legendary 1920s services such as the Brighton Belle and Golden Arrow. The interior of each carriage is different with exquisite marquetry and plush armchairs. The tables have elegant glasses, crisp linen and beautiful flowers. Each British Pullman carriage exhibits its own history. 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 train in 1965.

Carriage plans are here.

The British Pullman is a worthy companion in England to the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, on its route from London to the Continent and back.

Catering

Menus on the Belmond British Pullman feature the finest seasonal delicacies from the British Isles. Each dish is freshly prepared using ingredients from mainly UK suppliers. Each meal is paired with the finest wines. Special diets are accommodated. Being associated with the Venice Simplon Orient-Express Christmas lunch is, for instance, very special.
