Luxurious
Coaches
Passenger
cars are reminiscent of the golden age of railway travel, with luxurious wood
paneling, tables, carpeted floors, soft lamp lighting, wooden blinds, air conditioning,
bathrooms, large windows to appreciate the picturesque journey and open-air viewing
decks that allow passengers to step outside and “smell” the tropical
rainforest.
At present, there
are five luxurious passenger cars in operation, each named after a river of Panama:
| Rio Indio | Rio
Pequení | Rio
Gatún | | Rio
Mamoní |
Rio Bayano | |
In addition,
the Panama Canal Railway Company acquired a 1938 Southern Pacific Dome Car, the
Rio Chagres, and remodeled it at a cost of almost $1 Million.
All
passenger cars have a bar and snack service. |
