Even in the era of flight, trains continue to make us dream: perhaps precisely because, despite having imposed a sudden acceleration on our lives, they never abruptly interrupted our contact with the space we crossed, allowing us to experience the journey still in a human scale, on this side of the clouds, trains have always remained a soft and relaxing solution to bring us elsewhere.
And like every environment, where you spend hours being lulled, thinking, passing the time, the greater the pleasure of staying, the more is the beauty and refinement of what surrounds us: therefore, trains also have the their mythical models, from the Orient Express - transfigured into a legend by novels and movies - to the Bernina red train, to the Indian toy trains - also the subject of Wes Anderson’s cinematic unforgettable adventure; countless romantic expressions, which are journeys within the journeys, destination themselves, no longer simple functions, which have contributed in making the train that much-loved means in the world.
