Few of life’s experiences rise to the level of truly great and fewer yet create memories that you will cherish forever. Spending a night onboard the Private Railroad Car Dianne Marie is one of those special experiences that was once reserved for only the rich and famous. From the 1850’s to the 1940’s there was no form of transportation that was more exclusive and none more luxurious. Now you have the opportunity to experience one of life’s great pleasures by booking your room on the Dianne Marie.
Originally constructed for the Sante Fe Railroad by the great Pullman Company in 1914, the car saw regular service between Los Angles and Chicago and probably entertained many of the great names of the period. In 1948, the car went to the Seaboard Air Line and was remodeled for executive service. The Dianne Marie features polished mahogany throughout. You can wave at envious crowds from the same platform that famous politicians and movie stars have before, or relax in the spacious and comfortable lounge with an ice cold beverage. Your personal stateroom features a 3/4 size bed, mahogany dresser and closet, and a tiled bathroom complete with your own private shower. Unlike the plain cars of the average millionaires, the Dianne Marie is so exclusive that every stateroom has private facilities. The car was built for the exclusive comfort of six guests and has been meticulously maintained since leaving railroad service over 30 years ago by Richard & Dianne Sharratt. Now their private car is available for you to experience, whether to celebrate a birthday or anniversary, or simply to experience what it was like to travel like a king, an overnight on the Dianne Marie will certainly please.
Boarding begins at 4:00 pm and departs the station at 6:00 pm on a 3-hour roundtrip during which you will be served a 5-course dinner in the formal dining room. After dinner you may enjoy private time in your stateroom, step out on the open platform, or relax with an after dinner drink in the spacious lounge. An attendant will be with you all night to answer questions, tell fascinating railroad stories and keep your glass full. A hot breakfast will be served in the morning prior to check out around 10:00 am.
