Ride in the driver's cab of the Deutsche Bahn InterCity Express. In the ICE 2, we travel at 250 km/h on the high-speed line from Kassel-Wilhelmshöhe to Fulda.
This section of track has some superlatives to offer. Not only do we cross the longest viaduct on the high-speed line, but also the highest bridge. We also pass the shortest section of track between two tunnels with just one second of daylight.

*The camera was switched on before the journey and not operated during the journey.
