A very interesting Article on a new type of luxury train: The "Orient Express La Dolce Vita"

According to the article "six different trains [will travel] across 14 Italian regions, three international routes, and more than 10,000 miles of railway lines. Trips are expected to run between one to three days, and reservations will open in June 2022 for travel in 2023"

Was the old Orient Express in the 80’s ever pulled by steam? Or was it diesel or electric?
