Japan railway unveils super-luxury train

A Japanese railway operator on Friday unveiled a new super-luxury train it hopes will appeal to well-heeled travellers who don\'t mind splashing out to have their every travelling need fulfilled. Kyushu Railway\'s \"Nanatsuboshi\" -- Seven Stars -- service has a lounge car with a piano and a bar, top-end dining and 14 private suites. Each wood-panelled bedroom has plush beds and a desk along with an ensuite bathroom with a shower and toilet, equipped -- of course -- with a heated seat. The train travels around the rural southern island of Kyushu, with a four-day, three-night package costing up to 1.13 million yen ($11,000) per couple. The company\'s website boasts of a \"refined and dignified\" design that is a \"fusion of Japanese and Western and of new and old\". The train goes into service in October this year, but is already fully booked until June 2014.
