I agree that the ICE is an excellent train, but people in Germany are looking at the French counterpart, the TGV with envy. Where a ICE rumbles quite consiberably at speed 300kph the TGV is still as smooth as the ICE at 100kph. Not to mention the greater overall comfort and better food.

I didn't know our TGV was envied! I never really thought about it, but this train is impressively smooth for a metal beast moving at 300kph.

The food is known to be quite expensive and not great thought, I wouldn't recommend it
