I cannot definitely say it, but from the early mockups it doesn't seem promising to me.

Also the marketing of "revolutionary" "life-changing" and "solving all problems"(hyperboly of course) and providing only a very light redesign and a 3d visual is a big red flag.

I am basically afraid of this.

Would you say this is a "very light redesign" of a traditional sleeper car?

[–] JustJack23@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yes, but in not a good way, adding hard to reach areas, screens and foldable beds imo is not the right direction.

Whether you love or hate* it, I think calling it a "very light redesign" is disingenuous at best. As for screens and foldable beds, those already exist on trains as well as planes and have for decades, so calling them "added" seems strange on your part. Sure, there's likely good criticisms to be made here about this design, but you've as yet not really given any tangible ones.
