Underwater Champagne Serving Trains


Paris: With Europe drawing up ambitions plans for new high speed rail links between the capitals, the recent proposal out of Paris for an undersea train from Paris to New York which would take 8 hours seems to be the most ridiculous. But after a recent survey of the wine and champagne selections on the Eurostar we here at W4 think traveling by rail is far more relaxing and chic than boarding a flying bus. We agree with the French, non to Europe, oui to underwater champagne serving trains to the world's captial!
