A short video about the fastest trains in Germany, the new generation tilting high speed ICE T and ICE 3 trains made by Siemens, full name Intercity Express. Full details at www.eurodestina...
I am so happy I am European. I love high speed trains and wonderful pictures seen through the windows while riding. I am proud European. May live Europe and it's cultural diversity. Let's enjoy it every day. :) Roberto
I had the opportunity to travel on these trains....I went all around Germany and even to Switzerland....I'm planning a trip next year back to Germany to do it all over again-but this time with even more train rides to eastern Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands
There aren't as huge distances in Europe or Japan as in the USA where people use airplanes instead of train. Actually you can find an airport in any major cities in the USA so almost every area is accessible by air.
Riding an ICE from Frankfurt to Augsburg noticed how fast the scenery was going by and looked the the speedometer, 150mph!! The best part smooth and comfortable.
I've been traveling with ICE twice, Dresden Neustadt-> Lepzig Hbf und Leipzig Hbf-> Dresden Hbf, it was my best transport experience. I havn't even by a car faster driving :) Every night I have the same dream, that ICE is in Poland driving instead PKP.
@eurodestination anytime... oh so there running the ICE there in 2013..thts Awsome!!....its going to look sweet running through the Chunnel...i hope one day i can ride a train through there
Germany, I have to say that you have the overall best high speed trains for me. You have the most beautiful routes as well. If I had to stick with one country in TS apart from mine (Spain), it would be you. The only pity for me would be your difficult language, but I guess everything is learning something to then know something, hehe! 🇪🇸❤️🇩🇪
Ahhh the ice train. Another piece of Germany I really miss. Anywhere in Europe is at your finger tips with just a few hours to a day trip on these trains. Awesome.
Why do people have to constantly compare and dick measure when it comes to these things. Just appreciate the beautiful machine we all came here to see.
Highspeed tracks cost a lot of money and the US train companys dident want to invest this money because they want quick profit and no longterm expensive investment. The european and asian highspeed rails are stateowned and fast public transport is there seen as usefull as superhighways. At the end, they make good profit, but it is realy a huge investment - like the Hoover dam.
@eurodestination You can see two Dutch trains (ICM (02:32)and DD-AR(02:28) at the station. Both are Dutch trains. So I think it really has to be a Dutch station. Because the ICE doesn't pass too many Dutch stations, it has to be Utrecht Centraal, Arnhem or Amsterdam Centraal. I've never been at Arnhem, but I know the stations of Utrecht and Amsterdam quite well and I think this station really looks like Amsterdam Centraal..
@Trainmaster189 I can only think of two reasons. One, since they were the "Bahn Frei!" ad trains, it could have been a publicity move. Two, they could have been two trains bound for two destinations, but had to travel on the same line at the same time before splitting off.
lol I'll be travelling with an ICE this summer. Can't wait for it.. Also nice to see the station in which I'll probably take the ICE (Amsterdam, the station at 02:30...
@kevinmohlen13 I know... I travelled from Mannheim HBF to Utrecht yesterday. Because work on the railroad the train didn't start in Basel, but in Karslruhe. Because work on the station of Arnhem the train entered The Netherlands around Venlo. This is only temporary, of course. Because of those things, it took a little more time to get from Basel to Utrecht, but it was still a great experience to travel with the ICE 3. I'll post one or more vids of the track between Frankfürt and Cologne soon.
@timphiey Train is leaving Frankfurt on 9AM and arrives Paris on 1PM so the whole journey lasts 4 hours. Ticket cost from 39 EUR (when you book in advance). We don't have passport checks inside the EU (Schengen zone).
@SirAvalord It's all about "priorities". Where I am from, the emphasis is upon "militarism"...and, the obscene, bankrupting expenditures inherent in such a negative, futile preoccupation. Germany focuses upon a solvent, viable future...and, the well-being of its citizens...
Air travel is not always quicker, as Airports are usually miles from City's (Budget Airlines even further), whereas Railways stations are in the City centre,and Trains do not require check-in or out.
If you show this on a US message board, they start to... Even if Amtrak would have these kind of trains, they do not even have the tracks to let them run at 180 MPH... Will Trump really make America "modern" again? Looks like a century mission....
best for usa will be , to order a sytem , the japan ,or german.....dont spent money to invent things that exists .......the tracks and the trains .......
ploopy523 No, it cant. It got soft bogier. If it go any faster then about 255km/h, the boggier will wobel. At speeds of about 280 the wobel will be that hard so it will derail or not be able to accelerate any more. Also, you wold destroy the rails. ICE-T uses pendalino boggier. The pendalino is a derivative of the X2000 that done that testing back in the 80-tys.
@timphiey It should be around 7 hours to get from frankfurt to paris. they don't stop for passport controls because in the zone of schengen the are no frontiers
It is a trans-european line, For example, the ICE operates between Amsterdam (Netherlands) to Frankfurt (Germany), So in Europe we can even have continental high speeds railways,
@topsander Its is i come from the Dutch That is at Amsterdam Central station. Than its go to Utrecht and Arnhem Its go to Germany via Emmerich and then to Basel BSS or Frankfurt
Yeh they are good, but they don't actually go quite as fast as TGV's as some of the lines are old still. The new lines in Germany are 300kmh, however, which is great.
Is this the killing machine that a conductor refused to stop when passengers saw the pieces of wheel sticking up into the cabin and let 100's of people to die? I commend Siemens and Germans for canceling all the ICE until the thorough investigation was conducted and corrective action was implemented.
doesn't matter if they're members of the EU or not. The UK is part of the EU, yet you still need a passport to enter UK borders. Depends whether the country you're visiting is past of the Shengen aquis Agreement or not, which the UK is not a signatory State :)
I was wondering the same thing. Even if it is that high I know it could due to the electric motors throughout the entire train. But still, thats seems like an extreme grade...
Entshuldigen Sie Bitte. Why do you not use airsusupision ? I recomend you to come to Japan. Japan used airsusupision to (even)commmuter train over 50 years ago.
Wow awsome video!!!...the ICE is one of my favorite trains.....great vid....i posted a series of vid's on the oringinal ICE when it first came out...check it out when you have some free time..keep up the Awsome work!!!
2:01 TRAIN RACE !!!! SO AWESOME
I am so happy I am European. I love high speed trains and wonderful pictures seen through the windows while riding. I am proud European. May live Europe and it's cultural diversity. Let's enjoy it every day. :)
Roberto
Being a Indian I love Europe too and it's secular culture...be safe from islam...it is spreading there like rabies 🥲🥲
I have always been an admirer of German engineering!
The Shinkansen has the best aerodynamics
The TGV has the most efficient suspension system
The ICE is the most beautiful train body design
That argument i cannot contradict you!
Dem kann man nicht wiedersprechen! :-)))
New ice train Speed --> 250 Km/H
what? Nah... they regularily reach 340km/h on the way between Frankfurt and Cologne. I use it often...
PatagonianWarrior 340 km/h, that's awesome.
PatagonianWarrior haha no way. normaly they don't go faster than 280, 300 only when they're late
I work as a stewardess on those trains, and when I read all the comments on here, I just feel so darn proud! :-D
We are traveling on them currently. They are amazing.
Europe gets the Cool Trainz, because US peeps are too in Love with their cars... everyone knows that :)
Us Cars are shit and trains too
Planning a trip to London, Brussels & Berlin next year and look forward to being a passenger on this fabulous piece of German engineering.
How was it?
One of the best trains I've ever seen!! Cogratulation Germany!!
These trains look amazing.
Great video! Love ice .It is much more comfortable as TGV. Keep it up German engineering.
I had the opportunity to travel on these trains....I went all around Germany and even to Switzerland....I'm planning a trip next year back to Germany to do it all over again-but this time with even more train rides to eastern Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands
There aren't as huge distances in Europe or Japan as in the USA where people use airplanes instead of train. Actually you can find an airport in any major cities in the USA so almost every area is accessible by air.
Best video I have EVER watched in my life!
One of my smaller dreams is to ride on an ICE a TGV and a maglev.
ICE3/Velaro is arguably the most beautiful high speed train in the world. So stylish yet simple.
Riding an ICE from Frankfurt to Augsburg noticed how fast the scenery was going by and looked the the speedometer, 150mph!! The best part smooth and comfortable.
I've been traveling with ICE twice, Dresden Neustadt-> Lepzig Hbf und Leipzig Hbf-> Dresden Hbf, it was my best transport experience. I havn't even by a car faster driving :)
Every night I have the same dream, that ICE is in Poland driving instead PKP.
1:31 just blew my head off
the ICE is one of the greatest high speed train on earthxx
Brings back memories..
this is a great trein
Germany best
The camera is zoomed in quite far in that shot, which has the effect of "compressing" distances, making things such as hills seem shorter and steeper.
always a good ride!
The Line papa
Beautiful engineering.
Beautiful pictures. Thank you very much Gary. 5 * Philippe
@eurodestination anytime... oh so there running the ICE there in 2013..thts Awsome!!....its going to look sweet running through the Chunnel...i hope one day i can ride a train through there

🇪🇸❤️🇩🇪
Superb footage Gary, and it just shows how far behind we are in the UK..5* Bob
This video is excellent!
Deutsche Bahn is great. A real pleasure to travel with comfortable ICE trains.
Wonderful the human being mind changing from generation to generation
Ahhh the ice train. Another piece of Germany I really miss. Anywhere in Europe is at your finger tips with just a few hours to a day trip on these trains. Awesome.
Wonderful video. Superb trains.
the Germans just have it! no matter if cars, trains, tanks or mechanical engineering. the Germans know how to build something like that.
I agree , and it wouldn't be an exaggeration if we said that the Germans are (generally) the brightest engineers on earth .
Why do people have to constantly compare and dick measure when it comes to these things. Just appreciate the beautiful machine we all came here to see.
I like german train excellent train wow
Absolutely great video! Love the music.

Its fantastic!
i have use it before while i am study in Germany, Aachen

Very beautiful German trains, which I would like bought in Denmark, in a few years when Denmarks new tracks has been electrified.
I should have known that, but thanks for putting me right. I shall update the info. Cheers.
Very nice video, indeed!
1:09 Train driver like a Boss
lol I'll be travelling with an ICE this summer. Can't wait for it.. Also nice to see the station in which I'll probably take the ICE (Amsterdam, the station at 02:30...

I always like ICE's Siemens trains... best speed and exterior...

Many thanks, glad you liked the music, it is good isn't it!
Have a great trip!
Lol im in philippines
Superb stability...
Beautiful video! I love it!!!!
Air travel is not always quicker, as Airports are usually miles from City's (Budget Airlines even further), whereas Railways stations are in the City centre,and Trains do not require check-in or out.
For some reason when I was 6 I watched this way to many times
Same 😂
I have found it's a lot more fun arguing when I don't even believe what I'm saying. :D
@topsander Thanks for the comment. I think that station is at Cologne.
@justanotherfreak2008 Many thanks - great trains!
yes, but depends on schedule. About 5 hours last time I took. No need for passport, both Germany and France are members of The Europe Union.
UK Has: Eurostar
France Has: TGV
Germany Has: ICE Train
The best train ever
If you show this on a US message board, they start to...
Even if Amtrak would have these kind of trains, they do not even have the tracks to let them run at 180 MPH...
Will Trump really make America "modern" again? Looks like a century mission....
best for usa will be , to order a sytem , the japan ,or german.....dont spent money to invent things that exists .......the tracks and the trains .......
Awesome. 2;01 2 trains Close Together.
Great video of teh super fast trains! How fast? Like to listen to the sound of the trains!
230km/h gör ICE-T and 300km/h for ICE3, it can run faster, but they don´t wan to.
matsv201
+matsv201 the ICE-T could go 205mph if it wanted to
ploopy523 No, it cant. It got soft bogier. If it go any faster then about 255km/h, the boggier will wobel. At speeds of about 280 the wobel will be that hard so it will derail or not be able to accelerate any more. Also, you wold destroy the rails.
ICE-T uses pendalino boggier. The pendalino is a derivative of the X2000 that done that testing back in the 80-tys.
Danke
That's right, its the only way to go!
@EMDSD14R Thanks mate, I can't wait 'till they start coming to London in 2013. Cheers.
sie sind immer noch schön treuinen
amazing
@timphiey It should be around 7 hours to get from frankfurt to paris. they don't stop for passport controls because in the zone of schengen the are no frontiers
great vid.........
@topsander I''l take your word for it. Thanks for the info.
Czech republic has pretty lousy train system too, but it's getting better =D
Wow! that train is fast
The USA should take a leaf out of Germany's railways. Excellent means of travel and FAST too! Hurry Up America, you're getting left behind!
It is a trans-european line, For example, the ICE operates between Amsterdam (Netherlands) to Frankfurt (Germany), So in Europe we can even have continental high speeds railways,
Ahhh yes, the old mythical race. ‘If you don’t do it you’re going to be left behind!’ Left behind what!?
Siemens made the ICE
USA has a ACS-64 made by siemens so tell siemens that
並走するICE面白いですね^^高速電車の並走は初めて見ました。
@topsander Its is
i come from the Dutch
That is at Amsterdam Central station.
Than its go to Utrecht and Arnhem
Its go to Germany via Emmerich
and then to Basel BSS or Frankfurt
I wondered if there were any high speed rails in the states. The trains we have where I live are mostly freight trains.
Shame on you if you've been to Germany and didn't take a ride on this marvel.
this is cool
Yeh they are good, but they don't actually go quite as fast as TGV's as some of the lines are old still. The new lines in Germany are 300kmh, however, which is great.
sadly you're right but its still worth a try
Nice videos subscribed
@LeazesPhil Nice one - enjoy the trip
ich mag züge!
@justanotherfreak2008 The aerial shots were authorised to me by Deutsche Bahn. Have you seen my other ICE video to Cologne?
ICE is very comfortable
Is this the killing machine that a conductor refused to stop when passengers saw the pieces of wheel sticking up into the cabin and let 100's of people to die?
I commend Siemens and Germans for canceling all the ICE until the thorough investigation was conducted and corrective action was implemented.
doesn't matter if they're members of the EU or not. The UK is part of the EU, yet you still need a passport to enter UK borders. Depends whether the country you're visiting is past of the Shengen aquis Agreement or not, which the UK is not a signatory State :)
I was wondering the same thing. Even if it is that high I know it could due to the electric motors throughout the entire train. But still, thats seems like an extreme grade...
greattt !!!
Well I was trolling at first, but now I'm starting to think. Thanks.
Entshuldigen Sie Bitte.
Why do you not use airsusupision ?
I recomend you to come to Japan.
Japan used airsusupision to (even)commmuter train over 50 years ago.
Haha so true, we need to wait till 2026 to get high speed 2 up and running
@SirAvalord A rail journey in the Uk would probably change your perceptions
Wow awsome video!!!...the ICE is one of my favorite trains.....great vid....i posted a series of vid's on the oringinal ICE when it first came out...check it out when you have some free time..keep up the Awsome work!!!
