Since 1891, the Gold Standard of Rail Travel
GrandRail was founded by the Montague family in the autumn of 1891, when Sir Edmund Montague commissioned a private train to carry guests from London to the Scottish Highlands for the grouse season.
Over 130 years later, the same obsession with craftsmanship, discretion, and the art of unhurried travel defines every journey we curate. Our trains have carried royalty, artists, diplomats, and dreamers — all united by a desire to arrive having truly travelled.

Words from Those Who Know
"From the first inquiry to the final farewell, every detail was attended to with a grace I have never encountered elsewhere. GrandRail does not merely transport you — it transforms you."
Lady Constance Ashworth

Paris → Venice, Imperial Carriage
"The concierge team arranged a private stop at a vineyard we had mentioned in passing. That is the GrandRail difference — they listen to what you do not say."
Monsieur Henri Delacroix

Zurich → Barcelona, Grand Suite
"We celebrated our anniversary aboard the Imperial Carriage. The chef prepared a dish from the village where we first met. I wept. My husband wept. The sommelier discreetly looked away."
