		<title>Talgo II photo album on LIFE</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just by chance, I found this photo album poking around LIFE Google-based search engine for photos.
I suppose it refers to first Talgo II train set produced in the U.S. in 1949 by the American Car and Foundry Company (ACF) under the direction of Spanish engineers.
Photos were taken by Al Fenn.

		<title>Napper: the hood every commuter wants</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Especially on the dirty, noisy, overcrowded trains I&#8217;m used to take everyday to commute, in Italy, from home to workplace (50 km far, more or less); it could be useful having such a gadget conceived by the German designer Simone Wittmann: Napper, the commuters&#8217; favourite hood.
Hoping it will not remain only a concept, we appreciate [...]]]></description>

		<title>What&#8217;s going on the Swiss railways?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s a smart and clear way Swiss travellers have to check the punctuality of their train. As well there&#8217;s a way for rail enthusiast to be always up to date with every train movement on SBB net. The first one is pretty useless considering the well known efficiency of Swiss railways.
Frankly, I have not understood [...]]]></description>

Bergensbanen is [...]]]></description>

Having a look to the Europa Film Treasures website I found this short and very interesting video whose story is presented herafter (source: EFT website).
