Two Grand Experiences
One Grand Adventure
INDULGE YOURSELF
AND
CELEBRATE NOSTALGIA
Departing from Portsmouth, Rhode Island, the Grand Bellevue-Rail Dining Experience offers a unique dinner train restaurant adventure featuring dining cars built in the 1940s, with our freshly restored interior decor, that once traveled between Boston and Miami.
We'll take you back in time to celebrate an elegant, nostalgic dining affair of the Grand Streamliner era in our Aquidneck Spruce dining car, or solve an interactive Murder Mystery aboard the Atlantic Rose Theatre dining car.
Once checked-in at our period Welcome Station, our staff will delight our guests by serving a full coarse meal while they enjoy our relaxed paced journey with views of Narragansett Bay, the majestic Mt. Hope Bridge, and the surrounding natural beauty of Aquidneck island; we might even catch a stunning Sunset.
WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO RUN THE GRAND BELLEVUE TRAIN?
It takes many people working together to give our guests a great experience. Track maintenance crews, train car and locomotive maintenance crews, conductors, and engineers run our trains. Our culinary team, waitstaff, customer service, and senior management team coordinate our evening events and run the inside of the train. Working together in sync, we're more than just a train and more than just a restaurant.
