Le Train Bleu
Beginning in the 1980s the night express trains were gradually replaced by the high-speed TGV trains, which cut the length of the journey from Paris to Nice from 20 hours to five, and this effectively ended the era of luxury night trains to the French Riviera. After a long history, "Le Train Bleu" ceased to exist under that name in September 2003, when SNCF rebranded all of its principal overnight trains as "Service Nuit".
