Pullman Class on the Bernina Express.

A journey aboard the nostalgic 1930s-style carriage combines historical travel culture with personal service and selected cuisine to create a harmonious overall experience.

The culinary highlight is a visit to the La Gatta vineyard, where you can enjoy a local lunch and wine accompaniment.

Choose between a day trip with a return journey or a single trip to Tirano or St Moritz.

A maximum of 32 passengers per route are welcome.

Pullman Class makes crossing the Alps on the world-famous UNESCO World Heritage route between the high mountains and the Southern Alps an experience you’re unlikely to forget.

For those members who suspected neckervd's topic seemed not quite right, it has been confirmed as legitimate.

I'd personally never suspect a post by neckervd.

I've seen those trains neckervd, and wondered about them, but figured they'd cost a small fortune, and we're more than content with SBB regional trains, but first timers might really enjoy giving them a go.

You've piqued my interest in La Gatta vineyard though.
