The IC3 (or class MF) is a Danish-built high-comfort medium/long distance diesel multiple-unit train. The sets were built by ABB Scandia (later purchased by Adtranz, which itself was subsequently acquired by Bombardier Transportation). This train model has been operating in Europe since 1989. The name indicates simply that it is a three-carriage InterCity trainset.
The IC3 is a wide, articulated train (with bogies shared between carriages) made of aluminium. There are two 298 kW (400 hp) engines in each end of the front and rear carriages, while the central car has none, giving a total of 1192 kW (1600 bhp).
