Inside a Budd Coach
Nostalgia and comfort combine in a Budd Coach during the Grand Canyon Railway Budd Coach Tour.
Experience the beauty of the Grand Canyon area while riding aboard a nostalgic coach train from Budd Manufacturing Company with the Grand Canyon Railway Budd Coach Tour. Built in the era of streamliner trains, this ride will take you back to the style and sensibilities of the 30s and 40s while enjoying a constant stream of Grand Canyon scenery. The journey will begin in Williams, AZ and travels 65 miles north to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. Gain an encompassing view of the Grand Canyon and its surrounding area during your next visit with the Grand Canyon Railway Budd Coach.

Trip Itinerary

  • Wild West Shootout - A half-hour before the departure, you'll be treated to a live show of Wild West proportions that's sure to prepare you for the surreal settings you'll experience along the tour.
  • Depart Williams Depot - Enjoy a 2 hour 15 minute journey from Williams to the Grand Canyon, and the expanse of scenery that makes up the trip.
  • Explore The Area - Whether visiting the Grand Canyon Village or exploring the Canyon itself, you'll have 3 hours 45 minutes to thoroughly soak in this unique environment.
  • Depart Grand Canyon Depot - Take one last opportunity to etch the country side of the southwest into your memory with a relaxing return voyage to the Williams Depot. Just as on the initial departure, the time frame is approximately 2 hours 15 minutes.

Parlor, Dome and First Class Traveling Options

  • First Class - As might be expected, First Class offers traveling accomodations that are a step above. Oversized, reclining chairs and grand picture windows ensure comfort and optimum viewing, with snacks available on the return trip.
