Way Beyond the Couchette

Betty knows I’m obsessed with train travel, so a photo slideshow on the world’s fanciest train cabins is right up my alley.  I get excited about train stations and virtual train rides, so clearly some tricked-out hooptie of a private train cabin was going to take me to my happy place.

As I flipped through the slides on Travel + Leisure, I was comparison shopping: If I had three to six grand to drop on a trip like this, I thought, which would it be? Paris-Venice wins for destinations, but seems a little dark in the interior.

This line of delusional (but fun) thinking is what made me decide on the tub-on-a-train hookup above. Because, seriously, how crazy-great is that?
