History
A luxury liner for approximately 32 first-class passengers or their guests. This entrance to the habitable part of the first-class was guarded by several armed bodyguards and staffed around the clock to provide the best service for its 1st class passengers.
After the theft of the Pirate Train, First Class was decommissioned by Joseph Wilford and the dining car was left frozen and abandoned, at -25 degrees, with food still on the tables, apparently because Kevin McMahon was too lazy to have it cleaned up. After her previous hiding place was compromised, Pike had Ruth Wardell hide out in the dining car which he was secretly feeding a trickle of power to, at -12 degrees.
Technology
There is a pneumatic tube system which allows messages to be sent back and forth between The Engine. The public address system can be used in the car and was used so the train could listen to the L.J. Folger trial.
Interior
The interior consists of two rows of tables, on both sides of the car. The main dining room takes about one and a half floors, with stairs on each side of the car. The dining car also served as a multipurpose room[1] when needed, for example during the trial of L.J. Folger.

Trivia
- Presumably, due to the car's capacity and functions, there were 32 first-class passengers onboard Snowpiercer, before the revolution.
- This car appears to be using the "1st Class Type A" car CGI model. Recognizable by having windows only on one floor. Even though, there is a specifically designed car for Dining.
