George Mortimer Pullman and the history of stylish travel

George Mortimer Pullman was born in 1831 in Brocton, New York. To this day, his name remains associated with sleeping cars, comfort, rail travel and a distinctive vision of travel.

The Pullman tradition embodies the idea that the journey itself can be stylish, comfortable and memorable. Sleeping cars, service, fittings and atmosphere turned travel into far more than mere transportation.

For Pullman Club, this heritage is central to the brand: travelling in style, making rail travel an experience, with comfort, staging and a conscious culture of travel.
