I will definitely be a passenger on the ES.
For the later future, after the initial period, could we consider some improvement?
I’d be the author of a research paper on this topic: new types of night trains, to build a real travelling hotel. The work includes interior design concepts, new on-board and off-board services, carriage layouts, a basic business plan to verify.
If you are interested, it is in the book ‘Hotel-Train’, isbn 978-88-31474-12-2.
Thank you!
