Business Overview

- There is a void for this essential rail vacation service in the USA.

- Our growing fleet of elegantly rebuilt rail cars and journey vacation routes will fill the void, collaborating with Amtrak.

- Train trips will be for 5-8 nights, with layovers on the road where travellers live on rail cars while enjoying off-car attractions and activities.

- All-inclusive luxury Journey by rail products are sold to foreign and domestic (US) customers.

- There is a relatively huge luxury vacation market and excess worldwide demand for upscale train vacations.

- Retail sales outlets already exist and high occupancy is assured for the first couple of years.

- There is no meaningful USA competition.

- The first car has 2 levels, 4 bedrooms, full dining and other services, and is mechanically rebuilt. It is Amtrak certified. Additional selected cars will follow.

- We partner with Amtrak for the engine and other services.

- All necessary documentation and business permissions are in place.

- Journey routes include travel on 21,000 miles of tracks in the USA, and into Canada.

- Departures, sales and related revenues were curtailed this year due to Covid-19. Eminent renewed sales will generate revenue for departures now scheduled for next year.

- Covid-19 has no lasting impact on the journey by rail services.

Products & Services Overview

- Multiple revenue streams come from the sale of primary products that include individual all-inclusive luxury journey by rail vacations and timeshares, plus additional products including fractional interest (shared) car ownership, off-car tours, related and other services. Favourable earning projections occur if only one primary product is sold, or if sales are as low as 50% of expectations.

- A combination of lucrative prices that are lower than comparable foreign luxury trains, low inventory costs, reduced operating expenses, the excessive market compared to minimal inventory, existing selling capabilities, unmatched management, and memorable 5-star customer experiences enhance forecast earnings.

Assets Overview

General items, exclusive business relationships, operating rights and capabilities, one Amtrak certified passenger train car, rights to other unimproved rail cars, complete comprehensive business planning, in place operating capabilities, and rights to longer-term expansion concepts; everything necessary for the profitable provision of journey by rail train vacations.

Facilities Overview

Car mechanical improvements and repairs are presently outsourced. Interior remodelling and improvements are done in-house at a rented facility. All work will be moved to a new shop in North Texas when the shop is completed.
