Private railcars vary in how many people each can accomodate, but it usually varies between 4 and 40 guests.
Guests are able to move freely from one car to the next even when the train is in motion.
Some cars have large open lounge areas while others have several smaller sections with separate areas for sleeping, dining and sitting. Some have domes and others have open platforms at the rear of the train. Many private cars have onboard gallies from which food can be prepared and served during an excursion.
