Built by Siemens as part of their Velaro family of trains, the ICE 3 is the third generation of ICE trains first introduced in 1991. The 400-ton ICE 3 has a top speed of 320km/h (199mph) thanks to its aluminium construction and 8,000kW power output, significantly shortening journey times and improving the passenger experience. The Class 406 ICE 3M variant, as modelled for Train Simulator, was developed to run on the different railway electrification systems used across Europe and is used by Deutsche Bahn and Nederlandse Spoorwegen.
The ICE 3 for Train Simulator is a highly-accurate recreation of the Class 406 ICE 3M high speed train in DB livery, complete with a fantastic passenger view which enables lucky passengers to see into the driver’s cab and through the windscreen during their journey. Realistic operating features include PZB90 cab signaling system, AFB speed control and SIFA driver vigilance system. ICE 3 also includes scenarios for the Cologne-Dusseldorf route.
