Mercury – Britain’s New High Speed Train Concept

A conceptual train that travels at 225mph (362kph) is the focus of a new design from British-based transport designers
Priestmangoode. Named the Mercury, the double-decker 1,312ft (400m) long train, offers a low-carbon, sustainable transport of the future and represents an opportunity to champion British design and engineering in an increasingly competitive global economy.

An ambitious project, the interiors of this train are envisioned to boast of commuter seats and private berths, children’s play area, and lounge and bar. First class aboard the Mercury looks more like a luxury penthouse than like a train carriage. It comes with comfortable sofas, soft colour tones and clean design, as well as a lot of glass and open space. Instead of a shabby dining car there’s a sleek lounge with a bar. Families and business professionals have also been given their due consideration: Private rooms have been provided, and there are also play areas for children.
