US-French museum to offer night on Orient Express
Dracy-Saint-Loup, France
VISITORS to a quirky rail museum in France's Burgundy region, the brainchild of US entrepreneur Gregory Marshall, will have a new opportunity to spend a night on the legendary Orient Express.
Two carriages and a locomotive from the line created in 1883 to carry the well-heeled from Paris to Constantinople, as Istanbul was then called, are the jewel of Mr Marshall's growing collection of steam trains for a hotel-cum-museum he hopes to open next year.
