The Venice Simplon-Orient Express was a private luxury train service travelling from London to Venice.
The original company was founded by James Sherwood in 1982; five years earlier, in 1977, he purchased two of the original carriages at the auction when the Compagnie International des Wagons-Lits withdrew from the Orient Express service, passing on the service to the national railways of France, Germany, and Austria. Over the next few years, he spent a total of $16 million purchasing 35 sleeper, restaurant and Pullman carriages. On 25 May 1982, the first London-Venice run was made.
DB Schenker 67018 passes OldField Park with VSOE
21/11/15 Bristol Temple Meads - London Victoria 1Z16 A loco that i have been waiting to see for a long time is 67018 in its Canadian Maple Leaf Livery which is apparently not the same shade as DBS red... Keith Heller, The name of this locomotive, is the Ex Chairman of DB Shenker. He retired in 2011 after previously working with Canadian National since 1966... The loco and stock came down from Stuarts lane as 5Z15. It would later return with 67015 leading the train and 018 trailing on the rear. Only two weeks prior to this outing, the loco had been noted in Scotland on RHTT duties, this shows how easily a loco can move from one place to another... and remarkably, look very clean Hope you like the videos that i have been uploading recently... I would appreciate it if you would leave a message to show that you enjoyed it... Thanks
