Danube Express to extend route

from Berlin to Istanbul

Hungarian railways MAV will operate a special nostalgia train next year to link Krakow, Prague, Berlin, Gdansk and Istanbul, a company official said on Wednesday.

The Danube Express will include four luxurious sleeper carriages, MAV Nosztalgia director Andras Szentey said. A test run of the service is currently under way and has already attracted much success, he added.

The company will modernise its Candle Light Express service, which operates on special occasions, including Valentine's Day, Szentey said.

MAV Nosztalgia operates around 150 services yearly, including short excursion trains to domestic tourist destinations such as the Danube Bend and international luxury services to Europe. The company transports more than 10,000 passengers yearly.

Ron: "Hey... be nice to those of us over 69. whoops, that number is so sexy i don't want to give it up. that will not change as i leave it behind soon. Yeah, yeah, sweet little elfin Ben. He's neat. Good egg too. Here's hoping Alec has performed his magic well by now. The ordeat is nearly over, except for more hours downloading. Mary Ellen and I had a good outing to Oskaloosa. HyVee for part of pharmacy list. Still hunting for Roses tea. Then went to an 1890's bank downtown, now turned into a bookstore named Book Vault. Original vaults , skylights and all. Amazing place with great selections. I was good, although sorely tempted with some of the choices. But I'll wait for Denver where sales and used books more likely. Off now for after dinner walk in the "woods" (the windbreak north of house). But must carefully wend my way through dangerous territory. Wildlife roams between... 10 full grown cats and 10 new kittens. Kinda cute to watch kittens play again."
