This rare poster for the Czechoslovak State Railway depicts a stylized train cutting a sharp diagonal across a route map of the European continent, with the train's plume of smoke emerging in the shape of a wing. The map extends from Stockholm all the way to Istanbul. This is the French version; the Czech version has the sky printed in gray.
