Cela témoigne d'une époque où l'idéologie dominante à travers l'europe de l'ouest comme de l'est favorisait la collaboration entre les différents sociétés européens et non la concurrence comme maintenant, où ils se mettent les batons dans les roues comme maintenant... (Je me souviens de Turin en 2012, où j'étais obligé à faire la queue entre les gens qui allaient renouverler leur abonnement des trams urbains de Turin pour acheter mon billet de TGV Turin - Paris, parce que la FS ne voulait plus vendre les billets de sa concurrente, la SNCF, à ses guichets. La société des trams urbains l'a alors accepté, dans ses abri-bus ....)

I remember the great meals in the dining cars in the 1960s' it was still like this up to even the 1980s. The Golden arrow from London to Paris was also very luxurious. I used to take it in the 1960s because the planers in the winter were often delayed or even cancelled due to fog.

We used to holiday in Folkestone and in 1954 my brother and I were allowed to stay up late and were taken as a great treat to Folkestone Station to see the 'Golden Arrow' come through. We hung around on a deserted station until, suddenly, there was a mighty roar and a very large THING shot through the station and my little brother wet himself! My dad said it was called 'Le Fleche d'Or' in France. I thought this was very clever.

First train trip to Paris was in 1980. Train from Victoria was formed of 4-CEP units running non stop to Dover Western Docks. Crossed to Calais on a Sealink ferry. Had a burger and chips. Train to Paris was made of quite new Corail coaches and had a trolley service. At Amiens the loco was changed from diesel to electric. About 7 hours travelling time, quite an adventure.
