Private Rail Cars lists on Luxury Train Club




Private Rail Cars is now featured on the Luxury Train Club website.

Train Chartering’s Luxury Train Club is now offering the hire or charter of Private Rail Cars in various countries around the world, on 4 continents.

I believe private rail car hire is largely unknown outside the rail industry. A simple truth in few words: a private rail car is the best way to travel on Earth.
  
This new entry in the Luxury Train Club covers the following key areas:
-       What is private car hire?
-       What types of private rail car are there?
-       Where are the rail cars available for private hire?
-       Who generally hires private rail cars?
-       Why hire a private rail car?
-        Who can supply a rail car or carriage for private use?

The Luxury Train Club is the concierge service for luxury train travel.  The Club offers comprehensive guest and project management services for all private charter trains and private carriages. Our project directors are great communicators, both to clients and suppliers.  They liaise with station staff and train crew.  The Luxury Train Club also organises private waiting facilities at or near stations as well as other tailored catering, theming, and entertainment options, according to specific client requirements.
