The era of high-speed rail traffic at the Deutsche Bundesbahn began in the summer of 1991 with ICE 1. For the first time, a completely new rail system was introduced with newly developed trains, special high-speed lines and a far-reaching timetable reform. The railcar concept with closed, wide car crossings was groundbreaking for modern rail fast traffic. The maximum speed of 280 km/h in regular operation, as well as the high level of comfort revolutionized rail traffic and secured important market shares in competition with the automobile and the aircraft.This text is machine translated.
