VIDEO: The famous Orient Express visited a Hungarian town

The Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, coming from Paris, passed Szolnok, a town of almost 70,000 inhabitants in Central Hungary. Check out the video below.

Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, abbreviated as VSOE, was a luxury railway line connecting West and East Europe in the 19th and 20th centuries. Currently, it serves passengers as a nostalgia line between London and Venice and the original Paris-Istanbul direction.

Here is a video of how it arrived in Szolnok. Interestingly, its locomotive was Hungarian, advertising the Hungarian Children’s Railway on the Széchenyi hill in Budapest. HERE you may check out the prices for that special type of train.
