The SBB ICN (InterCity tilting train) has been an essential part of Swiss long-distance traffic since the late 1990s and continues to shape the image of modern high-speed trains on winding lines. It was developed by a consortium consisting of Adtranz (now Bombardier), Siemens and Fiat Ferroviaria for fast and comfortable passenger transport on challenging topographical routes. The seven-car motor coach trains connect cities such as Zurich, Basel, Geneva, Lucerne, Lugano and St Gallen with high frequency and reliability. Thanks to its integrated active tilting technology, the ICN can handle curves at speeds up to 30% higher than conventional trains without compromising on passenger comfort.
