BOOK - The madness of luxury trains

Luxury trains have always fascinated. They are the source of an imagination of travel, voluptuousness and beauty that does not dry up, to the point that companies around the world are creating new palaces on rails. Along the lagoon of Venice comfortably seated in the restaurant car of the Venice Simplon – Orient-Express, admiring the splendors of Machu Picchu at the Hiram Bingham bar, enjoying an onsen aboard the Shiki-Shima, the reader of this book embarks for a dream world tour. Also evoking the long-lost trains that have marked international railway history, from the Orient-Express to the Train Bleu, this book offers a double journey in space and time, a moment of madness from a luxury train to the other.
