Trainset: The proven concept
The Velaro E is a multiple-unit trainset in
which the traction and all technical modules
are distributed under fl oor over
the length of the train. This means that
the full length above fl oor of the train is
available to the passengers, offering 20 %
more room than conventional trains of
the same train length. The ICE 3 of German
Rail and the Velaro E are the fi rst European
high speed EMU type trainsets
that are proving their value in passenger
service.
