InterCity (Switzerland)

The InterCity, abbreviated IC, is a category of mainline train services in Switzerland operated by Swiss Federal Railways, connecting the country's major cities, the range of services (in Switzerland) of which is located between InterRegio (IR) (inter-regional) and EuroCity (EC).

Swiss InterCity lines have been numbered by analogy with the Swiss motorway network since the timetable change of December 2018.[1][2]

These trains are generally equipped with air-conditioned equipment, a restaurant or a bistro, a mini-bar service, a quiet area and a business area in 1st class as well as a family area or, occasionally, a family car in 2nd class.[3]
