Very nice and interesting video! By the way - you started your journey in the city with the - by far - worst beer in Germany, maybe even in whole Europe 😉!
Then you will be happy to hear that my next video will start in Frankfurt a. M. But give Kölsch a chance 😅 Thanks for watching and your great feedback , it is much appreciated.
I will be on two ICE 4s, a 7-car unit on the non stop from Koln to Berlin, and a 13-car XXL unit from Hamburg to Frankfurt. These will be my two longest high speed train rides.
@travelmentaryTV My 7 car set was a Sprinter service, which was really fast. The ICE 4 is still fine for the Sprinters, but they can upgrade the 7-car sets to 265 km/h. The XXL set was swapped to a normal 12 car set for Hamburg - Frankfurt, but the seat is the same on the 7-car set and it's still quite comfortable, but not as great as the ICE 1 seat.
@@SamuelLee-gw6wr Thanks a lot for your comment and sharing your travel experience, that’s good to read you had an overall good trip. So the ICE1 is still the benchmark in terms of seat comfort. I really need to make a video about that one as well! Christian from travelmentary TV
I just recently traveled on an ICE (I don’t think it was an ICE4 though) and if I remember correctly it was possible. I will re-check it on an upcoming trip 🙂
nice video, but the ICE4 IS NOT THE NEWEST nor the latest high speed train in Germany. That title must go to the ICE3neo which is in service since december 2022 and "not only an updated version of the old one" but actually a real new train. (not considering ongoing the new Talgo made ICE L which has been ordered and will enter passenger services approximately in 2024)
Hi, thanks a lot for watching and your comment. It‘s kind of confusing, please allow me to explain my reasoning: Regarding the numbering the ICE 4 is the latest ICE (newly developed ICE I shall say), but the ICE3neo is the latest to have been introduced within Deutsche Bahn. My understanding is that the ICE3neo (DB 408) is based on the Velaro platform, just like the DB Class 407 that has been in service since 2014. So I believe it’s not really a completely new train, but the latest version of the Velaro family. That‘s where my explanation is coming from 🤷♂️ I see your point though and will explain it differently the next time. Maybe I‘ll make an animation showing the different ICE trains. Also thanks for mentioning the ICE L, I would love to make a video on that in future. Christian from travelmentary TV
I am not completely sure what you mean, but it is possible that the color of the tracks on the map may be different than in some other videos. But over the past few videos I don’t think I have changed the color of it.
@@travelmentaryTV I live in Germany, normally you can pay with a card everywhere there are only a few places that dont accept card, but for something special like a service at your seat on the train, you better ask if it is possible
No, absolutely not. The number of videos that I am releasing has always been limited due to the complexity of animations and research that I do for each of them. So I release videos whenever I feel they’re ready. Additionally, I am working on new formats, that I will announce soon. If you enjoy to travel, just stick to this channel 🙂 Christian from travelmentary TV
It's not a product, it's a service. As in Air Service. Not Air Product. Same with trains. Travel is a service that one uses, not a physical product that one purchases. It's not your fault - it's a current mis-use by English speakers, probably introduced by marketing geniuses.
That theme song gives mo so much nostalgia when I used to watch your older videos! Nice to see that you are back! Nice video!
Thanks for watching, that‘s nice to hear the music is kind of nostalgic.
Christian from travelmentary TV

Can you put up the arm rests between the two first class seats? I know you can put up the one on the outside. Just not sure between two seats.

Welcome to this video! So what do you think about the ICE 4 and the German railway system that in general?
am I becoming color blind or green color tracks on the map are actually yellow? :D
I am not completely sure what you mean, but it is possible that the color of the tracks on the map may be different than in some other videos. But over the past few videos I don’t think I have changed the color of it.
Can you pay with card on the seat food service?
@@Lucast120 Yes. With that being said it, in Germany, it is generally advisable to have some cash in the wallet.
@@travelmentaryTV I live in Germany, normally you can pay with a card everywhere there are only a few places that dont accept card, but for something special like a service at your seat on the train, you better ask if it is possible
have you stopped making videos ?
No, absolutely not. The number of videos that I am releasing has always been limited due to the complexity of animations and research that I do for each of them.

Valid point! Seems I’m a marketing genius 😅
