These DB operated class 406 ICE3 units look absolutely fabulous! I have not travelled on one so cannot comment further but suffice to say most reports I have read are positive. One unique feature is that there is a glass divide behind the driver's cab so a full view is afforded if you are lucky enough to have the very front or rear seats! This is very similar to the first generation DMUs in the UK, but there, the similarities end! 406004 passes through Brussels Nord nearing the end of its journey, the 14.29 from Frankfurt Main to Brussels Midi.
