   The departures board at Frankfurt airport includes high-speed trains as well.

   Everything marked as terminal T is a train departure from the train station that is directly connected to the airport. They have Lufthansa flight numbers too!

     I absolutely love this both because of the well-designed transit but also because I absolutely love split-flap displays!

     @jeffalyanak I love these displays too, but unfortunately this one is silent when it flips. The sound is the best part. 😢

     @notjustbikes Wow, I didn't know it is possible to make taking the train feel like taking a plane!

     I guess Canada misunderstood the "let's replace planes with trains" mantra. 😂

     @nicemicro you can! And they don't even weigh your bags like they do in Canada! 😂

     @notjustbikes Lufthansa Tickets are also valid on these trains - so you needn‘t „two tickets“ (one by Lufthansa and one by DB)

     @notjustbikes theres’s two services:

     Lufthansa Express trains, with the train technically being „a flight“ (designation, signage etc). You literally check your luggage on the train and it’s automatically routed to your destination through the airport, onto the aircraft etc. You get a single ticket.

     And Rail&Fly: super convenient for people traveling to and from all airports in Germany and usually included in any fare booked through popular travel agencies: https://www.bahn.de/service/buchung/bahn_und_flug/rail-and-fly-english

     @notjustbikes "High speed"

     The ICE between Frankfurt and Berlin is like 100km/h average, in part as low as 60km/h thanks to rotting tracks and Deutsche Bahn's austerity phase in the 90's.

     @notjustbikes If you're making a video about Germany, a good way of engagement baiting for comments is to speak in broad terms, as if everything you say applies to every Bundesland 😏🤭

     @notjustbikes Is "Koeln" a bit obtuse? It is "Cologne" or "Köln". Gdansk is the only one not in German - We are a bit careful with that one in Germany I guess. Also, why do I make mistakes reading schedules? :/
