So there's something that came up during the industrialistion wave of Luxembourg, which I covered in the previous story: once upon a time in the whimsical world of 1867, when international diplomacy was as unpredictable as a squirrel on caffeine, France decided it wanted to get its hands on Luxembourg. Yes, you heard that right, Luxembourg. It's like the time your eccentric uncle thought he could trade his vintage rubber duck collection🦆 for a bloody private island🏝️

Since we talked about Luxembourg train station in the previous story, I suggest we continue with the system of Luxembourg's railways, cause the former's existence would've been kinda obsolete without the latter🤷🏻♀️
Picture this: in the middle of the 19th century (when folks were still debating the merits of top hats🎩 and monocles🧐), Luxembourg decided it was high time to hop on the railway bandwagon. They weren't content with just sitting pretty – they had grand plans🏔️ Why, you ask? Well, Luxembourg wanted to make friends with its neighbors, much like a neighbor who brings over freshly baked cookies to establish good relations🫂

All aboard! Luxembourg Station, the crown jewel of the railway world in the pint-sized land of Luxembourg! This little hub of locomotion glory sits a mere stone's throw (well, two kilometers, but who's counting?) from the center of Luxembourg City. It's so important, they decided to name one of the city's districts after it! Not just any district, mind you – it's operated by the Société nationale des chemins de fer luxembourgeois (CFL), which is a fancy way of saying they've got their act together when it comes to trains.
