* 1998 – Eschede train disaster: an ICE high speed train derails in Lower Saxony, Germany, causing 101 deaths.

Another early train with tilting technology was Deutsche Bahn's class 403 ( today this number is used by ICE 3 ) high speed EMU.

The city is served by Saarbrücken Airport ( SCN ), and since June 2007 ICE high speed train services along the LGV Est line provide high speed connections to Paris from Saarbrücken Hauptbahnhof.

It enables all passengers between Stuttgart / Cologne and Frankfurt to check in their baggage at the stations and use the ICE high speed train service to Frankfurt ( first class for passengers with Business and First tickets, 2nd Class for passengers with Economy tickets ) without having to carry their baggage themselves.

By the end of the 19th century, ICE had introduced examinations for professional engineering qualifications to help ensure and maintain high standards among its members – a role it continues today.

Since 1991 the ICE Service with ICE 1 ( Class 401 ) is used for high speed service.

The presence of flammable fuel, high voltage ( HV ) electrical equipment and internal combustion engines ( ICE ) means that a serious fire hazard exists in the engine room, which is monitored continuously by the ship's engineering staff and various monitoring systems.

When he was in high school his initials IC quickly got him a nickname ICE ( lately he interpreted it as Ian Campbell Esquire ).

ICE 3 high speed trains use electrochromatic glass panels between the passenger compartment and the driver's cabin.

For the supply of railways with much rail traffic and in particular for the power supply of high speed railway lines such as the German ICE ( Inter City Express ) trains, conductors of two bundles are used.

In 1988 the prototype InterCityExperimental ( ICE V ) sets a new German railway speed record of 406. 9 km / h ( 254. 3 miles / h ) on the new high speed line between Fulda and Würzburg.

In 1991 the new high speed lines Hannover-Fulda-Würzburg ( 280 km / h ) and Mannheim-Stuttgart ( 250 km / h ) were opened for service including the new ICE 1 train sets.

Due to its high octane rating it can be used directly as a fuel in flex-fuel cars ( including hybrid and plug-in hybrid vehicles ) using existing internal combustion engines ( ICE ).

After the introduction of the TGV in France, the ICE system of high speed passenger trains was developed.

ICE high speed lines also connect the region to Cologne, Paris, Karlsruhe / Basel, Munich, Berlin, Hamburg and Dresden.

It will also connect to the German high speed network, the ICE, via Utrecht and Arnhem.

It then turned out that, due to the ever-increasing number of ICE trains with control cars arriving in Frankfurt, the DB decision to only run push-pull-type trains into Frankfurt station, and the necessary high investment to create a new high-tech train depot at the station, this plan was reevaluated.

Roland Mack has also stated he wishes to develop a high speed ICE rail link to make access to the resort easier.

The RAV4 EV closely resembles the regular internal combustion engine ( ICE ) version-without a tailpipe-and has a governed top speed of 78 mph (~ 126 km / h ) with a range of.

An internal combustion engine ( ICE ) delivers power most efficiently over a small speed range, but the wheels need to be driven over the vehicle's full speed range.

The most efficient speed ( RPM ) for an ICE is often around 1500-2000 rpm for the typical power required to propel an automobile.

* Vic threatened to use a blackmail file on ICE agent Olivia Murray in order to speed up the process to get a job for ICE.

It hoped to begin these services in 2013 using Class 407 ICE units, with three trains per day each way — morning, midday and afternoon.

High-speed trains, called ICE connect cities for passenger travel with up to 300 kph.

Shinkansen trains now run regularly at speeds up to, placing them alongside the French TGV, Italian TAV, Spanish AVE, and German ICE among the fastest trains in the world.

Many high-speed rail rolling stocks are also multiple-unit trainsets, such as the Japanese Shinkansen and the latest-generation German InterCityExpress ICE 3 high-speed trains.

Tilting trains operating at or more on upgraded track include the Acela Express in the USA, the X 2000 in Sweden, the Pendolinos and Super Voyagers on the West Coast Main Line in Great Britain, and the ICE TD in Germany ( the latter two being diesel powered ).

Bombardier have since used updated versions of the LRC carriages for Amtrak's Acela Express, the third generation of tilting ICE, the new generation of fast British trains ( Virgin Super Voyager ) and the experimental JetTrain.

The Intercity-Express ( written as InterCityExpress in Austria, Denmark, Switzerland and, formerly, in Germany ) or ICE () is a system of high-speed trains predominantly running in Germany and its surrounding countries.

In the end, only three qualified bidders remained: ABB ( Swedish manufacturer of the X 2000 train ), Siemens ( manufacturer of the German ICE ), and a consortium of Bombardier ( manufacturer of the LRC trains ) and Alstom ( manufacturer of the French TGV ).

EP brakes have been in use in German high-speed trains ( most notably the ICE ) since the late 1980s, and in British practice since 1949, fully described in Electro-pneumatic brake system on British railway trains.

The major trains ICE, TGV and Cisalpino connect to Zurich.

However, for the 230 km / h electric ICE T trains ordered in 1994 for service on conventional lines, Pendolino technology was chosen again.

The internal combustion engine ( ICE ) is the dominant propulsion method for motor vehicles but electric power has remained commonplace in other vehicle types, such as trains and smaller vehicles of all types.

High-speed trains like the TGV, ICE, AVE and Pendolino can only be run economically using electric traction and the operation of branch lines is usually less in deficit when using electric traction, due to cheaper and faster rolling stock and more passengers due to more frequent service and more comfort.

Three competitors bid for the supply of the core system, which included the rolling stock, catenary and signalling: consortia led by GEC-Alsthom, today Alstom, one of the builders of France's TGV trains ; Siemens, one of the builders of Germany's ICE trains ; and Mitsubishi, one of the builders of Japan's Shinkansen trains.

Trips by fast trains, regional trains, InterRegio, InterCity, RegioExpress, ICN, and ICE lines within the network also have the network / zone system applied.

The ÖBB also deployed electric multiple unit trains, from 2006 also three ICE T ( Class 411, named ÖBB 4011 ) trainsets in cooperation with the Deutsche Bahn, currently running from Vienna to Frankfurt via Linz and Passau.

Today, after the abolition of the InterRegio in 2002, most long distance connections in Germany are either IC or ICE trains ; they most commonly offer at least bi-hourly service.
