If Trains are your crack, RailTrail is a good choice of dealer.
It does just work, hotels in the right place of the right standard, journeys pensioners can cope with the connections, guides who make it happen regardless of the real world interfering. We have done 4 and enjoyed the experience enough to book more. The group sizes are big enough to find people to share the spare time with but not so the whole day is head counting. You can choose full fat train spotting or holidays with some city touring blended. The only thing I would say is read the itinerary before you book as we have had people finding a daily steam train excursion too much or that a couple of days exploring cities rather than a steam train ride an issue but that is down to read what you are signing up for rather than RailTrail getting it wrong IMHO.

We have had 3 Holidays with Railtrail
We have had 3 Holidays with Railtrail, 2 in Europe and 1 in Scotland. 2 more booked for 2025, 1 in England and 1 in Switzerland. Every holiday has been packed full of interest. The hotels have all been excellent, and because of the holiday type, close to a railway station for convenience. It is always nice to travel in limited numbers with people of like minded interests. The tour managers are excellent. It is also good to have some freedom to do independent things as time allows. Booking has always been straightforward and the office staff only to willing to give advise if required. First class holidays.

Very satisfactory booking process
At this stage, I can speak (only) about the booking process. Railtrail Tours dealt immediately with my on-line application, and I quickly received confirmation that the reservation was made. This was very satisfactory. The holiday itself is later this year.
