What is Halloway?

Halloway is a brand new platform from Lunatrain for booking private rail travel experiences, making them easily accessible to all travelers. The Halloway Platform is the first digital marketplace dedicated to private rail travel in the United States.

Private railcars are privately-owned coaches—many attached to Amtrak routes—that are unlike any other transportation available today. These meticulously-maintained homes on rails boast bigger bedrooms, private kitchens and lounges, dedicated observation areas, and other high-end amenities not found on regular commercial trains. Every detail, from personalized service to the impeccable cleanliness, institutes a sense of care that marks a major improvement for rail travelers. Choosing a private railcar for your travel needs means your vacation starts the moment you step on board and you arrive at your destination more well-rested than ever before.

Halloway aggregates privately owned rail cars and makes them bookable through one elegant interface. What was once niche, word-of-mouth, or managed by small charter brokers is now streamlined into a modern luxury booking experience.

Discover, book, and manage luxury rail cars with ease. Whether planning an intimate getaway or a corporate retreat, Halloway gives you instant access to routes, availability, and curated experiences—so every journey is effortless and unforgettable. With Halloway, private rail travel is more accessible than ever before.

The upcoming Autumn Explorer, an 8 day, 8 night rail trip between October 5 to October 12, is now available on Halloway.
