A subway train in Shenzhen recently received a pink interior makeover, a reported attempt to encourage commuters to ‘proclaim their feelings’ in the city.

The train also boasts a number of random culinary references 

The bright, experimental train reportedly went for its first test run on May 6 and officially began service on Metro Line 1 on May 8.

In addition to being really, really, ridiculously pink, the train’s interior also sports quotes collected from Shenzhen commuters, some of which are from singles claiming they hope to find their soul mate in the city.

One such quote reads: “My boyfriend is perfect, doesn’t drink, doesn’t smoke, doesn’t exist.” Deep stuff.

A portion of the train has even been designated a ‘single’s area,’ which is divided into a blue zone for men and pink zone for women.

The pink train will run for one month, according to a report by ecns.cn.
