"A luxury rail experience that expands into a three-day itinerary beginning in 2026, linking Utah to Denver with weekly departures and pricing that includes overnight hotel stays in Moab and Glenwood Springs. Guests travel in panoramic glass‑domed coaches with open‑air vestibules and an optional lounge car for premier upgrade passengers, while attentive onboard hosts provide storytelling, land acknowledgments, and regional interpretation. The trip emphasizes effortless travel—luggage is transferred to hotels and hotel key cards are handed out on the train—and thoughtful accessibility with a platform lift, a specially designed aisle wheelchair, and an onboard accessible restroom. Culinary offerings are regionally inspired and locally sourced (from welcome mimosas and Utah scones to seared beef tenderloin, Baja prawn Cobb, pulled‑pork tacos with pickled cactus, seasonal desserts, and coffee and pastries from Denver partners), with sustainability practices like composting and data‑driven provisioning to limit waste. The route is curated for scenery—trains average a relaxed pace, slow for dramatic vistas, and allow customizable excursions at stops—creating a comfortable, immersive way to experience the landscape, history, and culture of the American Southwest." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"A glamorous luxury train that began operating in 2021, this three-day journey runs from Denver to Salt Lake City with scenic stops in Moab and Glenwood Springs, traversing mountain passes of eastern Utah and the wide vistas of the Great Basin. Onboard features include panoramic glass ceilings and several cars with outdoor viewing platforms that put passengers right into the landscape, plus hosts and culinary staff who lead activities and sightseeing. Meals are multi-course and emphasize locally sourced ingredients. Previously operated under a different brand and consistently praised by Travel + Leisure readers as one of the world’s best trains, the expanded route to Salt Lake City debuts April 21, 2026; fares start at $2,123 plus tax and tickets are available on the operator’s website." - Michael Cappetta Michael Cappetta Michael Cappetta is a travel writer with over 10 years of experience in journalism and television news.
