A Night on the Orient Express and History of Railroads | Sleepy Train Ride

A Night on the Orient Express and History of Railroads | Sleepy Train Ride

This bedtime story is about the mythical Orient Express service and the history of railways. Discover where the Orient Express came from: the story takes us to the early development of trains in Great Britain, the railroad mania of the 19th Century, the conquest of the Far West, the invention of luxury sleeping cars in the US by George Pullman, and the creation of the Compagnie des Wagons-Lits. For almost a century, the Orient Express was a link between two corners of Europe and connected capitals from the Belle Epoque to the 1970s, adapting to wars, the redrawing of frontiers, political changes, and technical revolutions. Relive this epic that inspired artists, adventurers, and writers like Agatha Christie.
