Bad sleeping gives weird creativity?

I would love to see an actual mock-up (in model form, or computer render) of what the proposed Amtrak X2000 for the Acela would have looked like.
But no, can only find images of what the borrowed X2000 from Sweden looked like when doing PR-runs in the US.

The does run 200 km/h. (Which is not ”high speed”, has been an everyday speed on good quality important continental lines for over 50 years, but still.)

@jamesbenedictbrown Indeed, the difference to SJ’s ”Bistro” is huge. Although I do kinda like the bright red seating in the X2000 Bistro. Very bold choice, considering their choice of livery for the outside;) Matches my wife’s blouse colour in this pic…
