Company History

Founded in 1999 as a joint venture between SNCF (French Railways) and Amtrak, Rail Europe became the primary North American distributor for European rail travel. The company expanded to offer products from over 50 European rail operators and launched its comprehensive online booking platform in the early 2000s. In 2019, Rail Europe was acquired by French startup Captain Train (now Trainline), marking a new chapter in digital rail distribution. The company has facilitated millions of rail journeys across Europe, establishing itself as the go-to resource for North American travelers seeking European train travel.
