Offering a threefold adventure returning to the days of elegant rail travel, this restaurant offers a deliciously crafted culinary and wine experience, a relaxing tour through the heart of the Napa Valley in meticulously restored Pullman dining cars (circa 1915), and pampering service. The "Gourmet Express" dining cars are opulently appointed with carpeting, gold drapes, fabric-covered chairs, table lamps and flowers, and ceiling fans. For an elevated scenic view, circa 1950 Vista Dome cars are a dining option. The 36-mile trip takes diners through vineyards to St. Helena and back to Napa twice daily.
