The Orient Express




Premise


The Orient Express was immortalized in both fiction and non-fiction for more than one-hundred years; both in print and on the silver screen. Sadly, many years ago it shut down; leaving many with an unfilled mark on a life's bucket list. A transcendent train ride through Europe that would never come to fruition. Other trains were available but it just wouldn't be the same. The ambiance, the legend, the bragging rights never to be had. That was until now.

A private and reclusive historian has taken it on himself to restore the Orient Express to her former glory. To celebrate her maiden voyage through the landscape a secret lottery was held world wide and a handful individuals were chosen to take this momentous journey through the wilderness.

Your Tv's, radio's, phones; all media was suddenly interrupted as if to give an emergency warning. Suddenly, over the air waves; it was announced, a lottery had been held which included every person over the age of 21 on the planet. No winner was announced but all were made aware that if they had been chosen they would soon find out.

Within hours of the world being made aware, you were approached; at home, at work, in the middle of the grocery store, it matters not. You were handed a special package which included a small letter congratulating you and telling you to pack for a two week trip through Europe, a ticket to Paris, and your boarding pass for the Orient Express.

Do you go? You know nothing of who is funding this, what the route will be, nothing other than you leave in a week and are assured everything will be provided on your arrival. Do you dare pass up this once in a lifetime chance?
