News just posted today says the last segment of the Orient Express has ended. Does anyone know, are there any remaining multi-night sleeping car services in Europe? I know there are still some urban overnight services, but are there any remaining long-distance services of two or more nights?

Maybe it won't work out. But maybe seeing if it does will be the best adventure ever.

Let me repeat and clarify my question: are there any remaining multi-night sleeping services that are still part of the transportation network, as opposed to the recreation network?

I remember visiting Europe in 1985 when there were long distance trains from Moscow to various channel and western Europe gateways.
