## Insider Tips
Not every departure is family-friendly — confirm when booking. The scenery is genuinely beautiful and the train itself (1915–1917 Pullman cars) is a legitimate attraction. Worth it for families who want a structured, scenic experience without managing a car. Book 2–3 weeks ahead in high season.
