This train ran as a regular service, with interruptions and on different routes, under different names between 1883 and 1977. Until 13 December 2009, the train ran as an international train between Strasbourg and Vienna. Special nostalgic rides are also organized under the name Orient Express. A change in Munich or Frankfurt is required for a train journey between Paris and Vienna.
