Surprise your customers, employees or guests with a unique special event trip. From a conference on the rails to a wedding reception or birthday, (almost) anything is possible on a historical special event train.
With our special event cars and trains, not only do you offer your guests a special location, but also a piece of Swiss railway history for your next birthday celebration, wedding or anniversary. The historical special event trains can also be used as an event location for your occasion or as a transport option. Enjoy an exceptional atmosphere, a customised supporting programme and culinary delicacies with your guests.
Would you like to hold a presentation, seminar or workshop during the journey? Then the “Le Salon de Luxe” saloon carriage is ideal for your trip. Fitted with the most up-to-date technology, you can have this coach set up in such a way that it is perfect for your business event.
Would you prefer to take a pleasant birthday or wedding trip? The Red Arrow “Churchill” has a fully-fitted kitchen on board, and our railway caterers have a variety of culinary delicacies ready for you.
Are you looking for a special location for a meeting or would you like to present your product in an unusual environment? With the special event cars and trains, not only do you travel together but also efficiently. Besides the familiar coaches with seats in 1st and 2nd class, there are different special event cars and trains to give your occasion a distinct atmosphere. Both “Le Salon de Luxe” saloon carriages serve as a modern seminar room on rails and can be set up individually, thanks to projectors, screen and audio systems.
You may specify where you board and alight and on which route you wish to travel during your trip. You have the option of selecting a coach attached to a scheduled train or putting together an entire special event train individually. On a special event train, not only do you choose the coach or train on which you wish to travel, but your fully personalised timetable too. Whether you decide upon a special event car or train, naturally we also organise a suitable supporting programme for you before, during or after the journey.
Each event has appropriate catering. SBB Charter therefore organises completely individual menus in conjunction with the railway caterer, according to your wishes. Whether you would like coffee and croissants, a traditional 3-course menu or a luxurious gourmet dinner, our railway catering company will ensure you enjoy culinary delicacies.
“Train now arriving at platform 6 is the Red Arrow «Churchill». This special event train is due to depart at 17:05. We wish you a pleasant round trip.” Whenever you hear this announcement at a station, it is referring to one of our organised events by train. The Red Arrow «Churchill», a vintage SBB train, will then pick you and your guests up for a pleasant round trip along the most picturesque Swiss railway lines and through impressive landscapes. While you relax and celebrate to the sound of music coming from the loudspeakers, our railway catering staff will serve you a dinner on the train from the on-board kitchen. The Red Arrow «Churchill» is a fantastic place to celebrate and you and your guests can even sit in the driver’s cab to watch the driver at work or catch a glimpse of the line.
This is just one possible example of how you and your employees and retirees, customers and partners or family and friends can celebrate together on board our trains as we offer a selection of carriages and trains to meet a wide range of requirements.
