    Old locomotive of the Dogu Express. Until the 1970s, the Dogu Express ran between Istanbul and Kars with steam locomotives. Nowadays, the route between Ankara and Kars is still served by a diesel locomotive. The journey takes 25 hours (sometimes longer) and gives you a glimpse of the beauty of Turkey. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Express
