This is not a problem. I have searched the web and found many ICE 3 photos,
as well as many good photos of high-speed trains around the world.

No, I didn't get it. Sorry. It has been far too many years since I used
German successfully. :-(
I have been to Europe two times. Three weeks of Eurail Pass train travel in
1981 when I was 11 years old. There I loved the German DB103 Express
locomotive (cream yellow and red colors), for I rode that type of train set
several times. I remember walking forward through the train cars to get to the
very first car behind the locomotive. I stood face to face with the egg-shaped
nose of the locomotive through a window in the car's throughway. :-)
In 1982 I received the set 7740. Now, I have tried to make a different, more
egg shaped, locomotive for the 7740 and enjoy more cars than the original 2
included in set 7740:

Halloween S@H special?! I have missed something. I did not know until now of
this set #3731 Pumpkin Pack for US$9.99 at USA S@H! Thanks!

Funny. But, I stick to Trick or Treat as most households would not understand.
