''L'Oiseau Bleu'' (or the ''Oiseau Bleu'') was an international express train linking Antwerp with Paris. The train was named after the play ''L'Oiseau Bleu'' as a tribute to its author, the Belgian Nobel prize laureate Maurice Maeterlinck.〔TEE, p. 9.〕 ==Wagon-Lits Pullman train== The ''Oiseau Bleu'' started as a luxury train operated by the Compagnie Internationale des Wagons-Lits as their second Pullman service between Belgium and France.〔125 Jahre/Ans/Years CIWL, p. 268.〕 Timetable of 1929:〔La Légende des TEE, p. 176.〕 Due to good loading figures the service was extended to Amsterdam on 15 May 1935,〔Das grosse TEE Buch, p. 98〕 making the ''Oiseau Bleu'' the "mirror" of the ''Étoile du Nord''. The outbreak of World War II interrupted the service. On 1 June 1947 the train service was restarted on the Paris – Brussels portion,〔Nederlands-Zwitserse TEE, p. 139.〕 conveying two through coaches from and to Antwerp and Amsterdam. However, by at least 1949, the through coaches to points north of Brussels had been discontinued and the ''Oiseau Bleu'' – also called the ''Blue Bird Express'' during that era – was again running only Brussels–Paris and return, with first- and second-class Pullman cars.〔"Table 23: ''Blue Bird Express (Oiseau Bleu)''".
