A German ICE high-speed train has been operating daily from Paris to Berlin since December. This service is the first direct rail link between the capitals of the EU's largest countries. Additional services, like the upcoming CD ComfortJet, will expand connections across Europe. Despite this progress, efficient cross-border travel is still rare due to issues such as inadequate infrastructure, incompatible rail systems, and complex ticketing processes, which hinder practical long-distance journeys across the continent.
The ICE high-speed train service from Paris to Berlin represents the first direct, high-speed rail link between the capitals of the EU's largest countries, establishing a new milestone in European train travel.
Despite the new services, efficient cross-border rail travel in Europe remains limited. Inadequate infrastructure, incompatible systems, and confusing timetabling complicate long-distance train journeys.
