Unique Orient Express & Wagons Lits game set
Only available on the Orient-Express train travels
"Wounded by a heartbreak, the young Belgian engineer Georges Nagelmackers fled to the United States. There he discovered the railways equipped with the world's first sleeping cars. Back in Europe, he realized his life's project: launching luxury trains that would take him to the Gates of the Orient.
In 1919, Orient-Express unveils the midnight blue carriages of the first Simplon-Orient-Express train. For the first time, Paris connects Istanbul via Milan and Venice, and crosses the Simplon Tunnel. A technological feat opens a new route through the Alps.
Designed by the decorator René Prou and the master glassmaker René Lalique, the new Pullman lounge cars inspire a new art of living on board. Masterpieces of refinement and luxury in the glory of Art Deco, they embody the excellence of French travel."
