Europe has the coolest looking models. Would be a great addition to my layout.

You are the most American modeltrain entusiast i have ever seen

[salvatorelatino]

So cool the cover system on wheels of the headcoches . ...it turns in the curves . Wow.

Hands down the best ICE HO scale train so far...
Additional notes: DCC-Sound Ver. has fully built interior lighting, the DC Ver. only comes with built-in interior lighting in the Motor Car, and it can be activated via a switch. PIKO also has separate sold interior light kits (center car/cab car) for the DC Ver. & additional cars as well. If you wanna lengthen your DCC Version, for additional cars make sure you order the lighting kit with it!

That IS one sexy train, Rey!! WOW OH WOW OH WOW! I had actually been looking for a review of the PIKO ICE 3 Starter Kit and came across your video! A-MAZ-ING! For us "newbies" (I'm 67!) I was looking to see what a decent HO set might be and whether to go with the "usual suspects" like (Dare I say it?) Lionel, Bachmann, and even Walthers! (I was seriously considering the WiFlyer Express with sound and DCC, but this and the ICE 3 are ultra cool! Vielen Dank für die wundervolle Video-Rezension und eine tolle Woche! Kevin in St. Louis

The train is not called "ICE" but "I - C - E".
This ist standing for "Inter City Expres".

Nice work, Rey. Your enthusiasm for the recent round of ICE trains in both HO and N is as much fun as learning about the trains themselves. This PIKO model looks great and has me really thinking about if I want this PIKO in HO-AC or if I want to buy it in N Scale? At first I was thinking N scale and now this video makes me seriously think about it in HO instead.

Thanks, in reviewing the video, the presenter says that the model has interior lighting, but when I click the link for the 2-rail version, the product description in part reads "SmartDecoder 4. 1 for the ICE 4 and is prepared for the uncomplicated installation of interior lighting, which brings the detailed interior fitting to advantage". Sounds like the lighting must be installed, is that right? Does it need to be purchased separately?

Hello what is the better versions of the ice 4 ?? I see your video with the Ice 4 from Piko but i also see the ice 4 from TRIX/Marklin, wich is the better version ?? Quality also ?? Thank you.

[uttum]

A very impressive and tempting set! But I cannot find it on your website.

[srikanthshastry]

Where did you capture the real train?
I mean, what's the location of capture in Germany?

[thunderturbine]

Great video man. Do you have any idea on when Marklin are expected to release their ICE 4 train?

[jonesyokc]

I've put model railroads on hold for most of my life because I just didn't have the space. Now I look at what is out and how expensive everything has gotten and I almost choke on my drink. Times have changed :-) I've never seen Piko products in person. How does this set compare with a similar Marklin product in terms of quality?

[sRailfan]

Whatever happened to Brian?, just curious.
