    -Will it have LZB?
    -Will it come with IC wagons, or is it used only on freight services?
    -Will it feature more services for other routes than HRR?

    No details have been released yet, so we just don't know. I'm personally expecting IC carriages, but no official information has been released.

    Given that its coming for Hauptstrecke Rhein-Ruhr it seems likely it will involve some passenger services, I'm hoping that it will include the IC carriages and the control car as well.

    I don't see why it wouldn't have LZB, the technology is there as seen with Köln-Aachen and München-Augsburg.
    I'm very sure that this train will not be used for freight, after all it is a passenger loco, not a multi-purpose locomotive.
    It will most certainly come with IC wagons, I'm basing that of the fact that this train almost exclusively operated with IC wagons.

    Those are just my thoughts, DTG can sometimes surprise us so take it with a pinch of salt.

    Between us Dutchies, I'm really looking forward to it due to the IC wagons since they are used by NS International as well. :D

    Exactly! That's one of the reason I'm hyped for it :)
    Also, the IC wagons will be the first German coaches since the Doppelstockwagens were introduced with RSN, back in 2018. Between then and now the Dosto's got reused again and again, alongside a variety of EMU's got released. Finally we will have some new and different loco-hauled passenger trains :D
    P.S, I don't hate Dosto's, I really like them after all, but I'm just tired of them as the only passenger coach for German DLC's :|

    Can you imagine how many services HMA would get if they got a DB BR 101 layer? :o:cool:
    (Together with the upcoming BR 420)

    I have heard the BR 420 would sub for the 423 so no new layers for it
