Once Upon a Time on the Orient Express

Step into the world of Once Upon a Time on the Orient Express. A global name that sparks a sense of wonder in the minds of travellers all over the world.

For the first time ever two original 1930 train carriages and a 158 year old locomotive will be shipped from France destined for Singapore to sit pride of place within the 2000m2 exhibition space. Designing and staging a display like the Orient Express in Singapore meant collecting around 300 precious items and documents, having to restore some of them and adapt many of the furniture and displays to its former glory.
