Fly Low - Go Fast - Turn Left
SNCF locomotives. Very cool BB 15000 and BB 16000.
While I stayed in Paris, I used to go to train station every morning because the hotel I stayed at was very close to Gare du Nord(North station) and Gare de l’Est(East station). It is fun to watch the international trains which arrive and depart all over Europe while I take a cup of coffee at the bar in the station:)
French locomotive is very stylish.
Gare du Nord. The timetable is written in French, English and German. Lots of international trains such as the Eurostar for London and the Thalys for Brussels depart from here.
Gare de l’Est.
Military Police armed with submachine gun is patroling in the station yard.
One day, I came across the Orient Express at Gare de l’Est.
The reception counter of Orient Express.
Waiting for departure. Have a great trip:)
