INTRODUCTION
The gleaming carriages of the British
Pullman adorned in umber and cream
livery wait as stewards, in their
immaculate uniforms, welcome you on
board the train. Your steward will show
you to your reserved seat in one of
eleven carriages, each an original
masterpiece from the 1920's or 1930's
with their own name and unique
personality. The British Pullman can
carry up to 252 passengers and consists
of 11 parlour cars, of which 5 are
kitchen cars, and a service car. The
carriages seat between 20 and 26
passengers in each. On board passengers
are seated in either ‘coupé’s (small
compartments seating up to four people)
or in the open car mostly at tables for
two. There is a limited number of single
tables and of tables for three persons
in the open car.
