Now Why Is It That The Inside Of Our Sleeper Trains In The UK,

do not look like this?


they soon will in Japan,

earlier this week JR East announced (this is a PDF document) a new luxury sleeper train, the “cruise train,” that will begin carrying passengers across Japan as early as Spring of 2017, the major railway company is spending 5 billion yen (about $50 million) to create the train, which will feature an adaptable EDC system, allowing it to run on both electric and non-electric rails,

spearheading the design of the train is Ken Okuyama, a legendary automobile designer who supervised the design of several Ferraris in the mid-2000s, Okuyama’s background helps to explain the luxurious cars characterized by large glass-paneled windows and high ceilings, the 07.23 from Beckenham Junction to Victoria will never seem the same after seeing this!
