Steam Rail Day Trips and Rail Holidays in the UK, Europe and Worldwide.

Established 27 Years

The Railway Touring Company has a long-established reputation for providing an interesting variety of UK day trips by steam train and unique railway tours in the UK, Europe and Worldwide.

Day Trips in the UK are on privately chartered trains and each passenger has their own reserved seat. There are three options available: Premier Dining, First Class and Standard Class.

Explore our island’s countryside in comfort on one of our UK tours, following rail routes that provide unrivalled scenery often missed by other means of travel.

Our holidays to Europe often use the Channel Tunnel, an experience in itself. Wherever possible, we allow photographic and filming opportunities so that tour participants can capture unique images of their holiday.
World holidays visit countries where travel by train provides opportunities to see sights and visit places not often included in the itineraries of others, delivering experiences not to be missed and sometimes never repeated.

We trust that you will take time to browse through the different sections of our website and discover Day Trips and Tours that suit your interests. Our small, knowledgeable and dedicated team are always happy to assist in any way possible. We put you, our customers, at the heart of everything we do.
