Once upon a time, the Orient Express was considered the epitome of luxury. providing passengers with maximum convenience for traveling through the entire Europe 1500 kilometers long. But for many years the Orient Express has not goes on the route, and the magnificent trains themselves have long disappeared. But one of them, abandoned and rusty, was found in Belgium and became for history lovers a magnificent reminder of the past.







The abandoned train was discovered in Belgium by a photographer named Brian, who was drawn to its exquisite beauty.





The Orient Express first went on the route in 1883. He delivered passengers from Paris to Istanbul in luxurious saloon cars.



By 2007, leisurely and luxurious passenger trains had gone to past. The Orient Express has ceased to be profitable. "Oriental Express" was canceled, and all the trains that operated the flights were removed from route.



Gradually, all the trains of the Orient Express disappeared - rusted or were sent for recycling. This train, the Orient Express Grand, remained the only one of its kind, but nature has already dealt him serious destruction.



However, even today in the carriages of the Orient Express one can guess the luxury and the sophistication of the environment that surrounded its passengers for 100 years back. Let's hope this once luxurious train is rescued from graveyard of trains, and it will become a monument to the era of leisure and splendor.
