Trains of the Art Deco Era

 

The Art Deco era also had a major impact on the train designs.  Art Deco was proven to be a timeless and eye-pleasing style significantly represented in movies such as The Great Gatsby and Murder On the Orient Express.

The "Mercury" was a streamlined passenger train which operated in the Midwest between 1936 and 1959.  It was designed by the legendary industrial designer Henry Dreyfuss.
