This new luxury train aimed to expand travel through Europe in an age when rail transport was still developing. Just boarding the Orient Express became a thrilling adventure, as passengers walked through an intricately detailed station to platforms shrouded in steam.

The Art Deco-style sleeper cars pampered guests with silk curtained cabins, washbasins, attendant call buttons and hot running water.
