The leading concept of the UN 235. IC 79 in the 2nd Grade IC Comparting Wagon in ERA IV in DB product colors was introduced by Bundesbahn at the beginning of the 1979 summer tariff with each class slogan. This new approach was needed because at the time, due to the continuous decrease in the number of passengers, the first -class intercity trains could not be operated economically. With the introduction of the second wagon class, a hourly rhythm was also removed from the frequency. The aimed reduction in travel times has been achieved by improving many routes and increasing maximum speeds. In order to save even more time, these accelerated trains no longer carry luggage and mail wagons and were divided into 1st grade, dinner wagon and 2nd grade blocks for quick transmissions at central stations. Following the success of the concept, the IC network was increased from four lines to five in 1985. IC continues to be an important backbone of long -distance railway travel.
