Here comes a mode of public transport for those who die for privacy and are ready to go to any extent to keep even the slightest of human presence off them selves. Christened as the train capsule, this one is a concept by designer Hamit Kanuni Kuralkan from Melbourne, Australia. Train capsule features just a single car unlike other multiple bogie options and can home just a dozen or so of passengers.
Sitting in this special train you can gift yourself an entire compartment that’s big enough for only you to fit in. Seating arrangement here offers such arrangement that passengers sit in side by side in side-facing but separate capsules. The train also offers a compartment of four at either end of the train for those social animals who don’t consider ‘two as crowd’.
Definitely, you own a cabin just to yourself in this train, but at the same time you ought to sacrifice on the comfort to move and roam about like you can do in other subways in the city. After all, everything comes with the price!
I hope they launch many of them together on the rails, else special efforts will be required to put on preventing brawls for seat.
