Germany’s New Train Is Basically a Moving Hotel

For the person with a long commute, spare time is always at a premium. Sure the average train is good to get work done on, but what about getting a workout in or catching some z’s? Both can be accomplished when you ride the Ideenzug, a concept from Germany’s state-owned train company. Outfitted with a state-of-the-art gym with digital fitness coaches, sleeping bunks, and TVs that stream news and sports, the train is more like a mobile luxury hotel. Bike storage, a dining car, and other amenities are also included, making this the train we’d most like to chill in whether we are headed to work or just have a free day.
