  1. I love the trip and train ! I think that men could , at least, wear a shirt in the dining car ! The train itself is also beautiful on the outside ! It reminds me of the old post-war Treno Azuro ! Wish one of the firms could model it in "HO."

  2. Le travail effectué sur les voitures Thello est remarquable. Même si à l'époque, les wagons-lits avaient été refaits en grande partie.

  3. Beautiful train. Beautiful scenery. Very nice private accommodations. Lovely dining car. Thanks Thibault for sharing your ride. ♥️🚋🚋

  4. Super video and a fabulous train, I want sleeper trains like this between every major European city, we wouldn't need to fly short haul in Europe then, just take the sleeper and wake up refreshed at your destination 💙👍

  5. A great trip but your walk through highlighted an ongoing problem with train travel.
    People travelling with luggage the size that would normally go in the hold of a plane – even if they're not. It causes all sorts of problems – boarding and moving through the train to say the least. The US seem to have it sort of under control with checked baggage. Something you might want to consider with the coaches for your new venture.

  6. it would be interesting to reach again Paris from Rome and viceversa with the Palatino which was in service in the 90's

  7. Такий мальовничій маршрут вздовж берега моря! Хочеться, вистрибнути у вікно до прозорої водички!
    Дякую за прекрасне відео! 😍😍😍 🇺🇦

  8. I used to enjoy the Paris to Rome sleeper and then Rome to Sicily one , the quality was lacking but still fun , this would be excellent .

  9. Loverly. I am making a special trip to ride Nox Mobility sleeper train when it is up and running. I'm very excited for you because I know you are going to do it right.

  10. I’ve been enjoying your channel for a few years now and this might have been your best content yet! Good luck with your new business venture and looking forward to hearing more about it.

  11. Good luck in your new business venture! If it's anything like this – at not too a crazy price – I'm interested. When you have cars for boarding, let me know!

  12. Great trip, combining overnight train experience and day trip train experience is great, and the scenery is magnificent. Even though it's only limited time but still great.

  13. Freaks me out that passengers just put their luggage in the corridor like that. I lived in Japan and it just irks me lol. Very European I guess? So uncoordinated/inconsiderate

  14. Man that's some beautiful scenery, the mountains and the seas look breathtaking. That's cool you went through Monte Carlo and Cannes(their train stations at least), The inside and outside of the trains look nice, great video Thibault. Best regards from the States 👍🏼
