Deutsche Bahn have announced that from 2023 all new ICEs will have a completely new interior design including new seats. What can I say - I think it looks absolutely amazing and shows exactly what is wrong with UK railways: The lighting looks incredibly warm and welcoming compared to the clinical, overly bright lighting on IETs, there is wooden panelling rather than plastic plastic plastic everywhere, there are comfortable seats with large headrests rather than ironing board seats, and also a proper on-board restaurant (obviously nothing new).
Sadly, the links are in German but there are some great photos.
What do you guys think?
