Course Description

Movies like The Orient Express and North by Northwest gave us an inkling of the vanished experience of dining on the trains of yesteryear. Grab your ticket and come aboard for delicious, legendary railway journeys. Meals associated with train travel have been an important ingredient of railway history for more than a century — from dinners in dining cars to lunches at station buffets to food purchased from platform vendors. For many travelers over the years, the experience of eating on a railway journey was often the highlight of the trip, a major part of the “romance of the rails.” Today, we sit in overcrowded Amtrak passenger cars, peeling cellophane off an overpriced cold sandwich, realizing we were born three generations too late. This course will delight rail enthusiasts, foodies and armchair travelers alike.
