God, it took me a while for my blood pressure to lower to realize it wasn't the ICE i was thinking about

InterCity Express, an iteration on the old and still existing InterCity trains. But yeah, when I read ICE in an English sentence these days, I also think of Trump's Gestapo.

Even InterCity trains are nothing to scoff at, they can sustain speeds of 200km/h.
