The café counter of the first car, Cockpit Lounge, was designed in the motif of the Nikko Kanaya Hotel and the embassy villas in Nikko. The theme of the menu is unique and local food of Nikko, featuring signature craft beer from Nikko Brewing and local coffee from Nikko Coffee, as well as original appetisers, sweets and other offerings.

The new private compartments contain a U-shaped sofa and adjustable table to allow four people to sit comfortably in a variety of ways. The layout of the table can be changed to suit the composition and purpose of the passengers and their mood at the time, providing the optimum space for each passenger.In addition to reducing CO2 emissions by up to 40% compared to the current Spacia trains, the power used by this express train will be provided by non-fossil fuel electricity that emits practically zero CO2 emissions from Tokyo Electric Power Company, thereby contributing to the realisation of the “International Eco-Resort Nikko” concept.

The newly designed train is expected to begin operations in 2023 between TOBU SKYTREE Line, Tobu Asakusa, Tobu Nikko and the Kinugawa Onsen Line.
