Inflate on track with Transnet's world-beating hospital train

And challenge it was! We had to create a cutting-edge presentation venue right next to the train itself... Furthermore, because Phelophela is all about taking first-world technology into the most underdeveloped areas, a quick-fix convenient urban railway station (with all the necessary hospitality features) just wouldn't do.

Instead, a simple rural station south of East London was chosen... and then transformed into a world-class event space. The barren, stony railway yard was graded and gravelled before Inflate's crew moved in with three different structures:

• the Trident - an 8m high, 24m diameter dome that rose from the dust in less than four hours to create the central hi-tech presentation auditorium
  
  
• the CUBE - a 12m x 12m, 5m high communications hub, doubling as both office and kitchen and set up by just four crew in less than an hour
  
  
• the AIROOF - an 'instant' entrance/reception lobby placed onto the front of the Dome entrance for maximum effect

MK Productions' best-of-breed technical team transformed the interior of the Trident Dome into an audio-visual extravaganza - with surround-sound audio, multi-screen projections as well as imagery playing all over the cathedral-like interior of the Dome!
