It is a set of trains that lather people in the largest country in the Middle East, according to the newly released design.
Next year, the dream of a desert train in Saudi Arabia, which will collide with the rails, will be the first gorgeous trains in the area, and the first rendering of 14 carriages has finally been announced.
The Train, the Saudi Arabian Railway (SAR) and the Italian luxury brand Arsenarespa, will be released in the fall of 2026. The architectural studio culture is designed by AlINE ASMAR D’AMMAN, an architect and designer. It is based on Paris and Beirut.
The idea is to increase the luxury while referring to the Saudi culture and heritage (including motifs from destinations such as Alra, Madine Sale, AIL) in the design.
The overall tone is appropriately sandy, and gold, beige, and dark tones are combined with chromium fitting that reflects the scenery of the outside desert.
The reception lounge is given the feeling of Majris. This is a room in a Saudi house in Saudi Arabia, where guests are welcomed, and contains geometric patterns and hand -carved wooden elements. On the other hand, the bedroom has an Emerald -colored sofa, headboard, drape, a beautiful line and a wooden panel wall.
Caution to the details extends to the public area. The artwork and photos of Saudi Arabian cultural sites decorate the corridor, and the exterior of the train is a polished chrome with violet accents.
According to a press release associated with rendering, the train has 34 suits with 14 carriages, and the restaurant menu is curated by “local and international chefs”.
The route crosses the northern railway network of SAR from RIYADH. The partnership with the Ministry of Culture of Saudi Arabia has a “curated cultural program” for guests and a unique itinerary itinerary of the train journey and seamlessly, but the details have not been disclosed yet.
SAR had previously stated in a press release that the dream of the desert would operate a “luxurious train cruise” from the capital of the Riyad to the northern border with Jordan.
The 1,300 km route incorporates the landscape of the national desert and stops on a one -night and two -night trip.
When it was called a “unparalleled travel experience,” Arsenare Group’s CEO Paolo Balllet said that the train would be a “completely immersive experience.”
DREAM OF THE DESERT is currently scheduled to debut at the end of the third quarter of 2026.
Meanwhile, the brothers’ trains, Dolcevita Orient Express, will debut in Italy in April.
