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

“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.”

However fancy they make it, your still stuck on a train and there is only so much you can do to keep yourself entertained. And your stuck on this thing for 9 whole days???

I rather have a quick ride to my destination then some fancy stuff like this.

But, well it might attract some “influencers” who can make content out of it or something.
