D 264/265 Mozart Paris Est - Strasbourg - Munich - Vienna West terminal

The train connection Paris - Vienna under the name "Mozart" became a living legend just like the musician that gave it its name as a express train as well as after 1987 as the “Eurocity” train. Many photographs taken by railway enthusiasts documented the most beautiful passages of the train route with the respective locomotives from each epoch. The journey took just about 14 hours between these two historic capitals and it was famed as one of the most attractive daily connections across Europe. Not few travelers went on it for the entire duration and opted against the shorter trip by plane. In the 1980s the "Mozart" usually had wagons from all countries that it traveled through in the line up. Between several orange painted Austrian Eurofima-wagons and the French Corail-passenger carriage wagons was a German semi dining wagon lined up in the classic TEE red and beige livery. This interesting composition was on its way for many years with the typical train locomotives on the subsequent parts of the route: an Austrian series 1044, a German BR110 in a refitted version and on French soil a nose locomotive from the series BB 15000. After 1987 the "Mozart" became as the Eurocity entirely part of the Austrian train fleet of the Österreichischen Bundesbahn (ÖBB) until the name of this train legend was finally discontinued. At this moment it is planned to run a route from Paris through Vienna all the way to Budapest with a TGV. It is quite possible that once again the railway will be chosen over other forms of transportation. The "Mozart" remains unforgettable as an image and as a model almost like its ingenious namesake with his music.
