The steam locomotive is a beautiful “Pacific” made in Germany by Henschel&Sohn in 1922. Its three wagons are: the German 1924 Hecht salon, the Italian 1928 Breda 1st class and the Romanian 1935 Astra 1st class wagon.

Two of these wagons (Breda and Astra) have been initially attached to different 1st class trains whereas the salon wagon has been used only for Charles the 2nd Royal train and is now beautifully restored in its original colors. The interiors of the wagons are as luxurious as possible especially the salon.

In spite of its age, the train practically flew on the wet lines like a puffy steamy morning dream.
