The unique train is a partnership between the Taiwan Railways Administration, Sanrio and EVA Air - who debuted its Hello Kitty Shining Star jet last year.

The eight carriages of the train each have a different Hello Kitty design and the seatbacks and serving carts also feature the cartoon character.
