JR East's Cruise Train —
Japan Rail East has called on Ferrari designer Ken Okuyama to create a 34-passenger luxury train. It will have only 10 carriages, including two glass-walled observation cars.

Now that's a view —
Observation carriages are located in the front and the back of the super-luxury train.

Cruise Train deluxe suite —
All suites will have a private bathroom with a shower and toilet but the top sleeping space is the deluxe suite. On the bottom are two beds, on the top a traditional Japanese dining area.

Dining car —
The Cruise Train's 10 carriages include five suites, one deluxe suite, two glass-walled observation cars, a dining car and lounge.

Lounge —
Japan Railway East's planned Cruise Train has a separate lounge car. Due for launch in the spring of 2017, no fares have yet been announced.

Sip and stare —
Proposed lounge seating on JR East's Cruise Train, now in development, suggests a new level of railway luxury.
