Abstract
A railway vehicle car includes a lower level and an upper level that are separated by an intermediate floor. The intermediate floor defines an opening emerging on the upper level and on the lower level, and also defines a bridge extending at least partially along the opening. The bridge connects a first longitudinal end and a second longitudinal end of the car on the upper level. The circulation of passengers is blocked on the lower level at least at one of the first and second longitudinal ends. The car provides for dining for travelers. The lower level includes a preparation area and a dining area, with the preparation area extending continuously between a first side wall and a second side wall of the car, over an entire width of the lower level.
