This exciting news from DB's Trade & Press newsletter, just landed...
Deutsche Bahn launches “flying trains” to promote Rail&Fly-offer.
Deutsche Bahn goes up in the air: Two Tuifly Boeing 737-800 have been designed in order to promote DB’s offer Rail&Fly in co-operation with over 90 airlines for rail journeys to and from major airports in Germany and Amsterdam.
The official christening of “DB Air one” in ICE design and “DB Air Two” in DB Regio design took place on 7th February 2011 at Cologne/Bonn airport.
Good news indeed.
Sadly Eye was unable to find a picture of the branded planes so our art department mocked up the following.
Apparently the noise pollution is minimal, till they land.
UPDATE: This, paradoxically, from EastWestDivide...
Am I the only one who find this kneejerk association of Germany = WW2 a bit tiresome?
Tschüß
