what is this ice train?
High-speed train in Germany.
Intercity Express.
never heard of it.
It is way faster than a car, so Americans won't want it.
One of those will get you somewhere reliably and fast. Unfortunately the somewhere is a detention camp.
Wir bitten, die VerspΓ€tung zu entschuldigen.
You got me in the first half!
Reliable being 2 hours late and with no AC
Both are getting people out of the country!
The bottom one won't, cause it never works.
Its quite reliable
yeah, the DB is horrendous, but the ICE trains work pretty well
In 2023, the on-time arrival percentage of ICE trains was 60something%. That's not exactly a number that screams reliability. I don't remember the exact number DB had to pay out for delay compensations that year but it was an embarrassing sum. Just today 2 separate people in my group chat were saying unsavory things about DB's mother because of 30+ minute delays on two separate ICE trains.
German trains being on time is a myth.
While punctuality is not the German trains strong point, this is mostly due to congestion and construction sites. The trains as such are remarkably reliable.
if you want to know how well ICEs can perform with a functional rail network, look to Spain's renfe. It's built by Siemens and basically an ICE with a purple strip.
β¦ 100% of the time, 5% of the time.
Heh...no
