The Berliner was a British military train running daily between West Germany and the British Sector of West Berlin. Once the train crossed into East Germany, the doors were locked. The service on board was rather lavish, complete with formal dining.

The Berlin Brigade HQ was disbanded on 1 January 1991. On 7 February 1991, the Berliner ran for the last time. It was an icon of the Cold War, but with the conflict over, Germany reunified, and greater air and car travel, it passed into history.
