Next time you travel, take the train. Train Chartering has published research showing that trains are almost always less damaging to the environment than driving, boating, cruising or flying.

 Plus you get to relax (or write that novel you've been thinking about) as the world slides by your window.  A train uses up to 70% less energy and causes up to 85% less air pollution than a jet aircraft. Short 1 hour flights have the greatest environmental impact, and intercity trains are easiest on the environment for the equivalent journey. A group of people traveling together significantly lowers their overall carbon footprint. If every person on the train were driving their own car, it would be bad news for the environment.

Train Chartering is the pioneer in developing tailored trains for special and corporate events.
