I was lucky enough to be invited (along with some other railfans and members of the press) to an unveiling of of one VIA Rail’s new trains. This one features a one-off paint scheme and is named 'Lumi'. Per the VIA press release "Lumi will be the only new train with this unique exterior design and acts as a reminder of the beginning of a new era for passenger rail. As others have done when introducing a new fleet, VIA Rail wanted to make a strong gesture by differentiating one of its trains with a special exterior design."
