Always fun traveling with the ICE or IC, not always such fun with Deutsche Bahn due to lot's of delays! It's not a NIGHT sleeper train that is why the night configuration the same as during the day.

Ah~ the ICE 1, the most iconic high-speed train to pop out from my mind first when it comes to German High-Speed Trains. This particular model is highly remarkable since it is the first-ever German-manufactured high-speed train since 1991, known as the born year of German High Speed Rail. Throughout the journey since it launched, it has never been easy for this particular trainset to go through times of glory, challenges as well and the Darkest moment. Despite these, the train is well-maintained and good as new as I see from the trip report. However, as time passes by, more new trains are gradually ordered thus slowly replacing the old trains and ICE 1 is no exception as the train has been running across and beyond the borders for 30 years. I hope to get the golden opportunity before it retires from service. Cheers from Malaysia
@PeteBrandy11 ай бұрын
Thanks so much for watching! So far, it looks like some ICE 1s will still remain in service, as some of them underwent a second modernization (specifically, this was already after the second modernization). In my opinion, these BR401 (ICE1) units are the best of the ICE trains, but I also like the ICE 3 Velaro, they are faster but also comfortable. Greetings from Prague :-)
@johnmehaffey995311 ай бұрын
Nice report Pete, although I’d prefer the proper sleeper trains with either a couchette or cabin these trains certainly fill that gap of less expensive travel, think I’d go for the compartment might get a chance to stretch out in one, looking forward to your next post
@PeteBrandy11 ай бұрын
Thanks so much for watching! It is usually difficult to find a free compartment on sleeper trains, most sleeping cars are sold out several months in advance. I preferred open plan seating because there was a reservation in every compartment and I didn't want to share a compartment with anyone :-D

@PeteBrandy11 ай бұрын
Je to tak, proto jsou také ty ICE 1 oblíbené. Bohužel ty další generace ICE jsou už jen plně velkoprostorové, sice třeba ICE 4 a ICE T má jakési semi-compartments, ale už to není kupé s výhodami typu vlastní regulace osvětlení a teploty.

To all non-Germans. The names Bvmz, Bpmbsz and Avmz are not important to you. Not even for us Germans. The designations are relevant for the staff of Deutsche Bahn. So orient yourself only to the (1.) class compartment and (2.) class compartment, marked to the coaches.
@JoernBeneken11 ай бұрын
ICE1 is my lovely favourite train set in Germany. All other followers did not reach the same standard. Especially the ICE4, I hate. Overnight ICE s are no option, they are slow, taking longer routes, have much more stops, no alternative…for me it’s a smart way for DB to bring the trains to nee start position for the next day. Why I should take this train when the early morning service takes only 3,5 h from Hamburg to Frankfurt. DB should invest money in developing new night trains again but they rather give this to train companies from abroad like ÖBB. So stupid.
@PeteBrandy11 ай бұрын
I also like ICE1 best. As for the night ICE / IC trains, the travel time is set so that the train does not arrive at the destination too early. For me, these trains make sense if I want to travel without having to stay overnight in a hotel and sleeper trains are sold out.

I've tried the ICE night trains several times, but I was probably lucky that they weren't full. A week ago I traveled from Berlin to Munich on an ICE 4 and there were only 3 passengers in the whole carriage and thanks to the longer sections without stops it was possible to sleep. But I always choose 1st class and try to choose connections where Low demand is indicated in the application.
