Amtrak Partners with GrandLuxe to Offer Luxury Rail Service

This is interesting news. I suspect there is some connection with this survey that Amtrak did earlier this year. Note that space on these luxury cars will be sold by GrandLuxe as the “GrandLuxe Limited“. Service starts this November and continues through the winter offseason.

Beginning this fall, passengers traveling on select Amtrak routes will have the option of lingering over five-course dinners, sleeping in luxurious suites and enjoying personal butler service. The premium service is being made possible by a new partnership between GrandLuxe Rail Journeys, the country’s premier, private rail tour operator, and Amtrak, the national passenger rail service.

This Grandluxe train is not all that great. It is way too expensive and personal service is hit or miss. It missed me because I won’t be on board this train again.
