DCNRHS DC Chapter, Washington, DC 20763-0230 703-273-8440

Hello and welcome to the DOVER HARBOR, owned and operated by the Washington, DC Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society. Our restored classic American sleeper-lounge-buffet railroad car is the only heavy weight Pullman revenue passenger car still operating in unrestricted train service on the main lines of America. The Dover Harbor is completely Amtrak compatible and is available for lease and charter service, mobile and stationary, at locations anywhere in the USA and parts of Canada. Our charter agent can arrange a special trip for you and your guests, arrange food service amd extra accomodations, or explore our scheduled public rail trips to popular destinations around A trip aboard the DOVER HARBOR is a trip back in time. The car is rich in history, tradition, and elegance, yet it provides the comforts, convenience, and service you would expect from a fine hotel. The car, which was built in 1923, is beautifully restored to its authentic 1930's appearance and meets all current mechanical and safety requirements. Our on-board service stands apart from the rest! Aboard DOVER HARBOR you will receive personal attention and first-class service in the best traditions of the legendary Pullman Company. You can relax and let our experienced, knowledgeable, uniformed staff attend to you and your guests' every need throughout your journey. You will enjoy freshly prepared, elegant meals from a menu tailored to your tastes. Sit back and take in the scenery, play cards, read, chat, or even sleep in the relaxed comfort of our historic Pullman as you glide down silvery tracks to your destination. Overnight guests enjoy the thrill of sleeping in one of our private double-bedrooms. Fall asleep safe and sound snuggled in your berth to a classic part of Americana - the sound and motion of the train ride. Awake refreshed, peering out your window to see "where you are." And we'll even shine your shoes while you sleep, just as the original Pullman porters did for their traveling guests!
