The Amsterdam Dinner Train is powered by a 65 years old locomotive of the E 1200 series formerly operated by the Dutch railways. These locomotives were assembled in the Netherlands according to a US design with heavy sheets of steel. The Netherlands obtained these locomotives as part of the Marshall help program for the reconstruction works after World War II.

Culinary mastermind of the Amsterdam Dinner Train is celebrity chef Julius Jaspers. He presented and was a judge for both ‘Topchef’ and ‘Masterchef’ in The Netherlands Jaspers, besides celebrity chef and writer also owner of the Julius Bar&Grill and HappyHappyJoyJoy restaurants, found a childhood dream come true with the Amsterdam Dinner Train. “I’ve always liked trains.
