About RL ICE 3:
The ICE 3 is the third generation of the ICE, with some radical changes to previous generations. The higher top speed (330 km/h) and steeper grades (4 %) of future high speed lines such as Köln - Frankfurt made it necessary to install power in more carriages of the train. So, the choice was taken to distribute the power over the whole train, rather than concentrating it in one or two power units. The ICE 3 will be an eight-car `half train' with 16 powered axles which can operate in double traction like the ICE 2 (and even together with it).
Testing of first ICE 3 vehicles started in fall 1998. The first ICE 3 trains were delivered to the DB Reise&Touristik AG and NS Reizigers BV near the end of 1999 and started regular service in May 2000. The high speed line Köln - Frankfurt will probably be opened in 2002, with five ICE 3 per hour.
Other than the ICE 1 and ICE 2, which were designed for domestic service, the ICE 3 comes in versions for one and four current systems and has a slightly narrower profile for international operation throughout continental Europe. The international ICE 3 will be delivered with the signalling systems of the Netherlands, Germany and Switzerland, but can be easily extended to run in other countries (Belgium, France, Italy) as well.
37 single-system trains (class 403) and 13 four-system trains (class 406) are in service or still being delivered for the DB AG. 4 four-system trains (class 406, NS number 4651 to 4654) have been delivered to the NS. One ICE 3 costs 40 million DM for the single system version, 42 million DM for the multi-system version. Meanwhile the DB AG signed a letter of content with the industry about the delivery of 13 more ICE 3 trains - these might have some differences to the trains already in service.
The styling was created by Alexander Neumeister, who is responsible for the visual characteristics of the whole ICE family, as he designed the ICE-V.
