This photo comes from Shorpy (www.shorpy.com), and while its not really the Orient Express, I like the image and players likely wont know the difference.  Since this is just intended to enhance the mood and help players visualize what theyre doing and where they're doing it....

Anyway.  from Shorpy - March 1943, Needles  California.  Electrician B Fitzgerald cleaning the headlight of a locomotive at the Atchinson, Topeka, & Santa Fe yard.  All engines operating west of Needles are equipped with hooded headlights in accordance with the blackout regulations.  Photo by Jack Delano, Office of War Information.
