Interior of an IC2000 Restaurant/Bistro-car. This is the upper deck, which now accommodates a large dining-room (with a small counter), very similar to that of ICN sets. Originally, this was a standard 2nd-class area, while catering was confined to a cramped Galley/Bistro area on the lower deck, where only a very limited offer was available. Following repeated complaints, the upper-deck was rebuilt in 2002/2003, so as to offer full-fledged restaurant accommodation, in addition to the previous Bistro service. Genève-Aéroport. 2nd November 2004. P.L.Guillemin (plguillemin@yahoo.fr).
