An ICE3 train in a station

The InterCityExpress or ICE is a high-speed train, built by Siemens AG and others, operated mainly in Germany and neighboring countries, including connections to Zürich, Switzerland and Vienna, Austria. ICE trains also run to Liège and Brussels, Belgium and at lower speeds to Amsterdam, Netherlands. The Spanish railway operator RENFE also employs trains based on ICE 3 trains (Siemens Velaro). Wider versions were ordered by the People's Republic of China for the Beijing-Tianjin high-speed rail (CRH 3) and by Russia for the Moscow - Saint Petersburg and the Moscow - Nizhny Novgorod routes (Velaro RUS).
