Childhood-memories coming true



During daytime somewhere in the outskirts of Ankara. We were told that here the Orient-Express-Theatre-Train should be painted and pasted. When exactly, nobody knew; where exactly, nobody was able to tell; finally we found it.
Huge foils are printed and pasted in long lanes onto the surface with unexpected accuracy. At the end we spend a whole day on this side track, communicating with our basic Turkish we have learned so far. And still we manage to jump on the suddenly arriving locomotive to catch a ride back to the main station. It is time for another performance of the Turkish Play “Ex-Press”.
Driving in front of this train feels a bit like childhood-memories coming true….
