Make long journeys a tribute to a bold rail experiment. JetTrain was developed by Bombardier Transportation and the Federal Railroad Administration for fast passenger service on routes where overhead electrification might not be financially practical. The locomotive prototype was completed in June 2000, then tested in Pueblo, Colorado, where it reached 156 mph in 2001. Proposals explored destinations including Orlando, Tampa, and the Quebec City–Windsor Corridor, but the concept never entered service. This travel mug celebrates the ingenuity, ambition, and unfinished story that make JetTrain memorable to rail-history collectors.

JetTrain was an experimental high-speed passenger train concept developed by Bombardier Transportation with the U.S. Federal Railroad Administration (FRA). It began in 1997 as part of the FRA’s Next Generation High Speed Rail Program, which explored service beyond the Northeast Corridor where electrification might not be financially practical. In October 1998, Bombardier and the FRA agreed to invest $13 million each in a prototype, built at Bombardier’s new plant in Plattsburgh, New York. Completed in June 2000, the locomotive used a gas turbine for high-speed running and was tested at the Transportation Technology Center in Pueblo, Colorado, reaching 156 mph in 2001. The proposed train paired turbine power with passenger cars derived from Bombardier’s LRC tilting-train lineage and cars built for Amtrak’s Acela. Proposals included Florida’s Orlando–Tampa route and Via Rail’s Quebec City–Windsor Corridor, but none proceeded. Other studies and proposals considered routes in Alberta, Texas, the United Kingdom, Australia and Mexico. By 2019, the demonstration locomotive was stored at the Transportation Technology Center, and JetTrain material had been removed from Bombardier’s promotional channels.
