Elvis fans have a new travel destination this summer. The Deutsche Bahn Museum in Nürnberg is holding a special exhibition for the biggest rock and roll star. DB Museum is holding this 500 square metre multimedia exhibition for two months.

One can not only observe photos of Elvis in Germany during his journeys on the US Military trains in Germany but also observe his personal possessions at the time. The basic idea of this exhibition is to please Elvis fans around the world.

This summer, passengers on the ICE trains have the opportunity to experience exquisite French cuisine in the bistros on board. The classy recipes shall be created by a star chef from Paris named Eric Fréchon. ‘It is important for us to have the best European head chefs on our trains in order to provide quality service’ states Tanja Schlesinger, Manager of the on-board catering services.

The idea of serving a variety of international cuisines on ICE trains started in February 2008 and will continue up until January 2009.
