A glass wall separates the driver's compartment from the passenger compartment. Passengers enter and exist from the two rear doors. A small kitchen with a refrigerator is located in the front section of the VIP compartment. These trolleys are to be transported to Bremerhaven, taken by to Jeddah, and then taken to Riyadh on flat bed trucks. Testing should start in DEC 2011. The system is expected to open in FEB 2012.
