He's a real nowhere man so this Blue Meanie gets the push before the fab new train sets off beneath the Channel, heading for Paris and Brussels in its smart new Yellow Submarine-inspired livery Yellow Submarine gets back beneath the waves BEATLES fans are taking a 188mph.psyche delic trip on a Channel Tunnel Eurostar train painted with images from the Fab Four's movie Yellow Submarine. The Beatles Express will travel about three times a day between London's Waterloo station, Paris and Brussels for the next three months. All 18 coaches on the train sport the psychedelic colours from the film, which was relaunched at a Liverpool premiere last month. Good idea The psychedelic train will travel on average three times a day between London, Paris and Brussels for the next three months. Painting the train is a promotional idea for the re-launch of the Beatles' Yellow Submarine film as a home video next week.

The Beatles had a number one hit with the Yellow Submarine single. The film had its origins in a TV Beetle cartoon series screened in the US from 1965. A new Yellow Submarine soundtrack album, using re-mixed songs, and featuring all 15 Beatles songs from the film is also being released next week. The Yellow Submarine film cost one million dollars to produce in 1968 and Roger McGough was responsible for much of the Beatles dialogue. Ex-Beatle Sir Paul McCartney said: "The Yellow Submarine Eurostar is a good idea, and I think I might take the train sometime.

I won't go on ceremony, I'll just show up on it one day." George Harrison added: "I think it's a great idea to do the train." The venture is a collaboration between MGM, EMI, Eurostar and Apple Corps. The livery was designed by Apple's art director Fiona Andreanelli, 26. She said: "We wanted each carriage to tell a different part of the Yellow Submarine story." The remixed Yellow Submarine film is being relaunched on video and DVD next week, when EMI launches the new soundtrack CD.
