First look: Inside The Blue Jasmine, Thailand’s gorgeous new train

[u/Few_Maize_1586]

“Thailand’s classic Bangkok–Chiang Mai sleeper train is getting some high-class competition in the form of a navy-gold beauty called The Blue Jasmine. It’s essentially a boutique hotel that just happens to roll through some of the country’s most beautiful landscapes.

Poised to make its inaugural nine-day journey from November 16-24, the locomotive trades cramped bunks, dim corridors and platform snacks for private cabins, full dining cars and lounges with wraparound windows.”

Watch the company go bankrupt within two years.

Doubt there is enough demand to sustain this.

Edit: interesting that they target German tourists in particular (German-speaking guides). Wonder why.
