Wegmann Restaurant-car "Rendez-vous" (BR 51 82 84-40 457-2), running on D 18021 "Blankenberge-Express" (Blankenberge ---> Luxembourg Ville, chartered by GAR).

Evening snack:

• salami, with bread, butter and gherkins;
• Bofferding Beer (Bascharage), very popular on this service, hence its nickname "Bofferding-Express" by SNCB/NMBS staff...

Actually the only opportunity ever to have luxemburgish on-board train catering...
