Watteau (train)
The Watteau was an express train that linked Gare du Nord in Paris, France, with Tourcoing in the North of France. The train was named after the French painter Antoine Watteau. 〔La Légende des TEE p. 378.〕
One year before the creating of the TEE-network the French railway SNCF introduced three ''Trains d'affaires'' to link Paris with the industrial area in the North near the Belgian border. This trains were scheduled with a morning, midday and evening service in both directions. Initially the service was operated with RGP 600 DMUs. In 1959 these were replaced by locomotive hauled trains consisting of Corail coaches. Although domestic TEE-services were allowed from 1965 the ''Trains d'affaires'' were not upgraded until 1978.〔Das grosse TEE Buch p. 114〕 Together with the upgrading to TEE the trains were named. The evening service pair was named ''Watteau''. In 1991 the service between Tourcoing and Paris was converted to a two-class Rapide. The ''Watteau'' revived in the Paris- Brussels service on 23 May 1993 for two years. On 26 May 1995 the ''Watteau'' was the very last TEE service ever.〔La Légende des TEE p. 409.〕
