AeroLiner3000
AeroLiner3000 outlines and defines a new approach to a high-speed double decker train for the future British high-speed rail network, consisting of HS2 and its planned connections into the existing network by so called „classic-compatible trains“. AeroLiner3000 shows the potential for future-proof capacity, low carbon emission through light weight construction, cost sensitive innovation and improved customer comfort. These Four C’s are an underlying guideline for the project.
World premiere in Berlin: To demonstrate to the railway industry and its experts an impression of the interior of AeroLiner3000, a 9m long full-scale mockup was presented at Innotrans 2016 in Berlin, the world's largest international trade fair for railways (20–23 September). AeroLiner3000 was shown at the stand of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) (Hall 2.2, Stand 405).
