- aidenn0 12y agoThanks for the correction; ICE trainsets are still way lighter right?
- welterde 12y agoDepends.. ICE1 trainsets appear to be slightly heavier than the Acela, whereas the newer ones are lighter. But that seems to be mainly due to having no dedicated power cars (ICE1 and the Acela Express do have power cars).
