Startup unveils ambitious plan for European sleeper trains
- Berlin-based startup Nox plans to launch a network of overnight trains connecting more than 100 European cities by 2035, starting operations in 2027.
- Nox says it aims to provide an affordable alternative to short-haul flights with private rooms on sleeper trains.
- Fares will cost from €79 for a single room and €149 for a double room.
- The proposed routes include connections to major cities such as Barcelona, Paris, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Warsaw, and Budapest.
- Nox says passengers will board in the evening, sleep in private rooms with 2m long beds, separate seats, and window views, and arrive rested in the morning.
