Acceptance runs with the ICE 3neo in Belgium

Since 13 May 2024, DB is executing the acceptance test runs with the new Class 408 ICE 3neo which is scheduled to start regular passenger service between Brussels and Frankfurt this June. The old (and problematic) Class 406 ICE 3s will then be replaced. Initially it was in 2022 envisaged that the Class 408s will serve Belgium from December 2023.
