British Pullman

The choice of royalty and a star of the silver screen, the Belmond British Pullman is a fully restored 1920s luxury train and easily one of the most luxurious in the United Kingdom. With eleven whimsically-named authentic carriages, each unique in décor and with different stories to tell, the British Pullman takes all its passengers back to the Golden Age of travel with its heritage upholstery, antique-style marquetry and vintage lighting. The Belmond British Pullman specialises in luxurious day trips departing from London Victoria and visits some of the highlights of Great Britain. Every journey aboard is truly unique and offers passengers a genuine insight to rail travel at its finest.

Hauling eleven distinctive Pullman carriages, each restored to their original 1920’s condition, there is plenty of choice when it comes to exploring the train or choosing where to be seated. Each of the carriages have been given their very own names to reflect their own distinctive décor. Royalty have ridden aboard these carriages and the British Pullman was even used as Winston Churchill’s funeral train, making this one of the most famous trains in the world with exciting historic stories to tell.

Each Pullman carriage seats between 20 and 26 passengers with combinations of one, two or three seat tables and four-seat private compartments. Larger parties may be seated across numerous tables and at busy times couples may share a table of four, however there is always the opportunity to request a private table upon booking.
