The organization boards also announced the official recognition of Hue Railway Station as a tourist destination.

The train’s new design is crafted to present a modern appearance while preserving a strong sense of heritage. Its exterior stands out with the dreamy purple Hue emblematic of Hue City, harmoniously blended with the light grey tones that reflect the modern and dynamic character of the coastal city of Da Nang. The brand logo is highlighted in bronze-gold.

The train consists of 12 carriages, offering 56 soft seats, all of which have been newly upgraded. The seating system features rows of seats capable of rotating 180 degrees, allowing passengers to face the direction of travel and enjoy greater comfort while taking in the scenery along the route.

The carriages have been redesigned with a fresh look, offering a vibrant onboard experience through a diverse range of activities, along with the introduction of local brands and signature regional products.

All carriages are equipped with LED lighting systems, high-quality audio, and LCD screens providing journey information and onboard entertainment.

In addition, the train features a VIP carriage with 32 seats, designed with a nostalgic and luxurious ambiance inspired by the royal court-style interior of Hue.
