Braunschweig to Berlin ICE Construction - does it impact IC/ENO?
Dear FTers,
What's up with the trains from Brauschweig to Berlin?
In searching for a one-way ticket, the 0-stop ICE's between the two cities list themselves as 1.5-hour rides with alerts saying there'll be an hour's delay due to construction. (So, 2.5 hours total, I guess?)
However, the "regular" ENO & IC trains with 1-2 connections don't say anything about construction. They just say they'll take 2-2.5 hours to get to Berlin, period.
Do they run on separate tracks and therefore non-ICE trains aren't impacted by construction or something?
Thanks a lot!

So two entirely different train lines.
