[edit] South Orient Express

Another luxurious excursion through exotic locations, this time riding the classical style 'Budd' cars restored to their former glory for their journey into the near-wilderness of the Copper Canyon.

[edit] American Orient Express

A documentary that follows the cross country trail of an American rail company whose purchase of antique rail cars and mimicry of that bygone era of civilised rail travel - when the journey was thought as great an experience as the one enjoyed at the journey's destination - have made for a popular holiday and a lucrative business. The American Orient Express travels through America's national parks and traces the story of blues and jazz back to New Orleans.

[edit] Rocky Mountaineer

Witness the crossing of the Canadian Rockies aboard the Rocky Mountaineer - a voyage where the journey becomes an experience in itself.

[edit] Eastern & Oriental Express

Catch a glimpse of the past as seen though the windows of a rolling museum of steam and steel. This series travels the paths of the world's most luxurious trains and resurrects a bygone era when the journey--rather than the destination--was the most significant part of the experience. This volume follows the Eastern Oriental Express on its journeys through southeast Asia: from the ancient and mysterious city of Bangkok, across the infamous bridge of the river Kwai, on through the lush jungles of Malaysia, and into the bustling modern city of Singapore.

[edit] Al Andalus Expreso

Catch a glimpse of the past as seen though the windows of a rolling museum of steam and steel.
