Abstract The European high-speed network already offers an alternative to intra-European air traffic for short distances (500–1000 km). High-speed traffic has so far been limited to daily connections. By making targeted use of the overnight jump, the train could also be an alternative to air travel for distances of up to 2000 km. This paper shows the potential opportunities for the use of high-speed overnight trains in Europe and defines the requirements for services and vehicle equipment from the point of view of rail passengers.
