My train girl just informed me that this isn't because the trains don't have AC, it's that the AC is so weak-ass underpowered that it doesn't properly work above 26°c.
oh damn they've been downgrading, I remember a decade or so back there was an understandable scandal about the ICE AC system not working above 32°C
This is for Regios, not for the ICE
I still feel like a decade of modernity should've given us, like, better train AC across the board and not -6°C working conditions for regional trains.
Like fucking 26°C degrees? That's temperatures you'd have here before the climate got all loopy with it
