This detailed guide takes readers on an unforgettable journey through 26 of the most iconic, scenic, and thrilling rail routes across the globe. From legendary transcontinental adventures like the Trans-Siberian Railway, Australia’s Indian Pacific, and The Canadian, to breathtaking mountain climbs and coastal views aboard the Glacier Express in Switzerland or the Settle & Carlisle in the UK, this beautifully illustrated guide celebrates the romance, grandeur, and variety of world-class train travel. The book features a diverse mix of steam-powered heritage lines, including France’s Vivarais Line and the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad in the U.S., as well as luxury cruise trains such as India’s Royal Orient Express, Africa’s Blue Train, and Spain’s Al Andalus. It also explores more daring routes through remote or dramatic terrain, from Puno to Cuzco in Peru, across the Khyber Pass, or from Beijing to Hanoi. Of course, no collection would be complete without the most iconic of all: the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express. Whether you're a train enthusiast, a globe-trotting adventurer, or a dreamer drawn to the golden age of travel, This is a compelling celebration of trains, landscapes, and the joy of the journey itself.
