Club

Club seating is limited and sells out quickly.  We strongly recommend making advanced reservations.
The Ski Train’s three Club Cars hold 38 passengers each. Ticket prices include a continental breakfast buffet on the morning trip, and apres ski snacks and soft drinks on the return trip.  A cash bar for beer and wine is conveniently located in each car. Many groups find this the perfect way to entertain clients.  What better way to have a captive audience, while mixing business with pleasure.  In order to have a presentation on the train, a group must reserve an entire Club Car.

You’ll experience a new definition of “getting away from it all”; on an ultimate trip you’ll never forget!

 

Three luxury cars are uniquely tailored for group entertaining.  All three cars must be charted for a Ski Train excursion, and hold up to 70 people.

 

The Utah – Feel festive – not frazzled – during your mountain passage.  Aboard the Utah, plush and abundant seating make for a relaxed, sociable setting.  Friends share the day’s adventures amid Orient Express-style decor.  With a fully equipped kitchen, and experienced staff, your request is our pleasure.  The Utah offers a treat for both eye and palate.
The Kansas – On the rear observation platform of the Kansas, fresh Colorado breezes and grand scenery welcome you into the Rockies.  Indoors, the Kansas offers all the comforts of home.  Groups gather in the living room, complete with comfortable chairs and a sofa, or enjoy meals in the separate dining room.  There’s no place like the Kansas for an intimate gathering.
The California – Lose yourself in the grandeur of the great outdoors, or celebrate the day with champagne upon your twilight return into the city.  Such are the pleasures of the California.  In the upper deck Vista Dome, passengers confer over cups of coffee and devour an early morning breakfast – all under a Majestic Rocky Mountain sky.  The California also has 8 comfortable bedroom compartments.
