Hugh Jackman and James McAvoy helped Virgin Trains officially name its exclusive 11 carriage Pendolino at London Euston station on March 31st, 2014. As the official travel partner of X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST, the train has been fully wrapped as part of a unique collaboration with Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation.

After the train was officially named by two of the film's most iconic characters, Professor Xavier and Wolverine, guests boarded the train for its inaugural journey from London Euston to Birmingham International, enjoying Virgin Trains First Class service all the way. The newly refurbished train, which took 160 hours to wrap in 549m2 of film, will showcase its X-MEN livery to passengers up and down the country until July.

The latest film in the X-MEN franchise, released on 22nd May, sees the return of Director Bryan Singer, who bridges the gap between the old and new franchises, with all the cast from the first three movies returning to join their younger version from X-MEN: Origins. A central theme of the movie is time travel as Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) is sent back in time in an attempt to change the course of history for the sake of all mutant-kind.
