Originally named by the Pullman Company, "The National Domain"
has been renovated into four elegant suites, featuring queen-sized beds,
private baths, and entrances.
The "CanCan" has a private entry and bath. The room
is magnificent with a beautiful 10–foot ceiling, crystal chandeliers,
and antiques. It is decorated with costumes, paintings, fabrics, colors
and fixtures reminiscent of the period in which the CanCan was first performed.
"The National Emblem" has been restored to its original
state, and provides the cozy accommodations which grand sleeper cars offered
in the past. Smaller, but delightful rooms share baths, while double beds
magically lower from ceiling alcoves. This car is an excellent choice
for large families or groups traveling together.
The "Bordello" has a private entry and bath. The room
is magnificent with a beautiful 10–foot ceiling, crystal chandeliers,
and antiques. It is decorated with paintings, fabrics, colors and fixtures
reminiscent of bordellos in the late 1800's.
"The Golden Nellie" was originally titled Caboose #1068.
It has been superbly restored as a private suite–car for those who
demand the ultimate in luxury and privacy. Golden ceilings, heavy emerald
velvet drapes and a queen size bed will have you feeling as if you were
an old-time railroad magnate. Even the original chairs are there and have
been recovered with beautiful brocade fabric. A golden ladder leads you
up to the covered observation deck above.
The "Gold Mine" has a private entry and bath. The room
is magnificent with a beautiful 10–foot ceiling, crystal chandeliers,
and antiques. It is decorated in rich golds and with the luxury that befitted
the homes of the gold miners who struck it rich in Alaska's gold rush.
The "Immaculate Conception" has a private entry and
bath. The room is magnificent with a beautiful 10–foot ceiling,
crystal chandeliers, and antiques. The ceiling and decorations are truly
inspiring!
A recent addition to the Aurora-Express is the "Arlene."
It is a private 85–foot car with 2 bedrooms including a queen size
bed and 2 twin beds. This car provides a private bath, kitchen and living
room with a T.V.
