01. The Original Screenplay For "Snowpiercer" Gives Little Description Of The Train Aside From The Engine

01. The original screenplay for "Snowpiercer" gives little description of the train aside from the engine car’s “silver, sleek rounded, bullet-shape nose”. The spare description gave the film’s art team a great deal of latitude to dream up a number of different designs for the titular vehicle that houses humanity’s last survivors. One of the initial designs accentuates the train’s sleek curves, suggesting its ability to move at high velocities with little wind resistance. 02. The Greenhouse Section’s surface is comprised almost entirely of windows to allow maximum light to enter and sustain the plants inside. 03. Exterior design of the Lounge + Salon Section. 04. Exterior design of the Swimming Pool Section. Similar to the Greenhouse, the Swimming Pool Section has plenty of windows to allow passengers to sunbathe during the daytime. 05. The cars that compose the Tail Section for the lower classes seem to riff off the look of contemporary livestock cars. Note the slat-style windows along the top, allowing air circulation but no real visibility. 06. Close-up detail of the Snowpiercer's wheels at the nose of the train. 07. In the original screenplay, the engine car’s nose transforms into a “sharp arrow-headed lance” to break through ice and snow. Although the final train does not feature this shape-shifting device, early designs show that the filmmakers did consider a piston-driven lance and a Giger-esque biomechanical aesthetic. 08. In the end, the final version that appears in the film bears a slightly more biomechanical aspect with a face-like design at its front.
