Logo of Compagnie Internationale des Wagon-Lits
Title:  Logo of Compagnie Internationale des Wagon-Lits
Description:  From 1883, the Orient Express operated between Paris and Istanbul in three nights and three times per week in each direction. The Orient Express deployed the first sleeping and dining cars for long-distance train travel in Europe. Prior to World War I, CIWL held a monopoly being in Europe the only group catering to the needs of the international railroad traveller. The company introduced famous services, such as the Orient-Express, the Nord Express, and the Sud Express and expanded to markets outside Europe with involvement in the Transsibérien across Russia. After WWII CIWL started to focus more on the travel agency and management business. Accordingly it was renamed Compagnie Internationale des Wagons-Lits et du Tourisme (CIWLT) in 1967, and later just called Wagons-Lits. Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot had a mystery to solve on the Orient Express in Murder on the Orient Express.

Description:  This former Giovanlo Freres tractor was built by Kronenberg of Lucerne, Switzerland, as number 129. At 1980 the company Giovanola had to reduce it workforce from almost 2000 workers down to 350, as the big waterpipe production for the huge water dam lake projects in the Swiss mountains came to an end. As young consulting engineer I was involved in the turnaround project, which finally succeded. Some years ago Giovanola Freres closed for good and this tractor came to Kallnach. Nice to see it here again.
