I'm fully Dutch but I was born in Switzerland (Dutch parents). I most definitely agree with this, Holland is nice but Switzerland is way better in most aspects. I will say that the German ICE trains are the best I've ever been on, the technology in those trains are amazing.
Hi! The double decker like the one in the video has the abbreviation "IR", which means Inter-Regio. The ICE-like train (aerodynamic single-decker) in switzerland has the abbreviation "ICN", which means Inter-City Neigezug (Neigezug = tilting train). I hope this helps!
SBB has a tilt train that they call the ICN, which mainly runs from Zurich and Basel to Geneve. They used to run the TEE (trans-euro-express)... which hasn't existed for a long time, however some of the old TEE trains have been refurbished and are used by BLS for Regional Express services.
I ve traveled to many countries in Asia and Europe, but never have i relaxedas much as in Switzerlands trains. They have the best trains in the world...
love the way you can feel the power and the speed...I live near Nyon, and before going back home I stop at the station and wait for the express. I salute the engineer, and just after the engine has passed I come to the white line (Inever cross it) and when the train is gone the air comes rushing towards you with such strength...!
I'm traindriver. One Message to "RoterAdrmiral". In Aarau, trains passes the station with 140 until 160km/h. And not with 100km/h like in Oberwinterthur. ;) Just for Information...
I had to have my friend in Aarau translate your message back to me. Seems that you are using a certain dialect of German that doesn't translate well on the Google language translator. Thanks again for your posts, RoterAdmiral.
That's fast!

I was there yesterday.
The city is really beautiful. And the trains drive unbelivable quick through the station. Switzerland is great! I was really sad as I had to leave.

They dondt have own ones. I think you might refer to the italian PENDOLINO. Even the french TGV runs in Switzerland.
