we need a new tgv record
@jeder trains in europe have been getting slower rather than faster sadly
@aetios @jeder the trains are mostly fine, tracks could be a lot better
@uint8_t @jeder eh the ice is no longer a high speed train, ice5 is canceled, ice4 only does 150kmh
@aetios @uint8_t cancelled? afaik they only couldn't find a producer and this was just the first attempt
@aetios @uint8_t would be kinda dumb to just cancel an ICE1/2 successor after one failed tender
@aetios @jeder ICE4 is Baureihe 412 and rated for 250 km/h (or 265 km/h), where did you get the 150 km/h from? ICE L should’ve been called IC L, but even that can do 230 km/h with a Eurosprinter or two.
@uint8_t @aetios and there's still ICE 3 neo which has a dumb name considering it's newer than ICE 4 but it does 320km/h
@uint8_t @jeder Hm, must have gotten my memories mixed up then. my bad
