The <i>IRE</i> service was first introduced in the 2001 summer timetable, due to the increasing abolition of <i><a href="/wiki/Interregio" class="mw-redirect" title="Interregio">Interregio</a></i> routes by DB's long-distance division (<a href="/wiki/DB_Fernverkehr" title="DB Fernverkehr">DB Fernverkehr</a>). As a result, several German states ordered <i>InterRegioExpress trains</i> on the routes affected. In addition <i>IRE</i> trains were also introduced on routes that had not previously had an <i>Interregio</i> service (e. g. on the Stuttgart–Tübingen–Aulendorf and Ulm–Aalen routes). </p><p>Unlike the former <i>Interregio</i> trains, <i>IRE</i> trains were classified as local passenger trains and can therefore be used by passengers with local tickets (DB Fares product group C as well as tickets issued by Passenger Transport Executives). This led however to some passengers being confused, especially to begin with, because they frequently did not realise that they could use these trains with local tickets. Furthermore, the new train type was often wrongly referred to in the early days as an <i>InterRegionalExpress</i> or ironically as an <i>InterRegioErsatz</i> (InterRegio substitute). However, since then, the name <i>Interregio-Express</i> has established itself. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Interregio-Express_routes">Interregio-Express routes</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Interregio-Express&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Interregio-Express routes"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Baden-W%C3%BCrttemberg" title="Baden-Württemberg">Baden-Württemberg</a> (also cross-border trains to <a href="/wiki/Bavaria" title="Bavaria">Bavaria</a> and <a href="/wiki/Switzerland" title="Switzerland">Switzerland</a>): </p> <ul><li>IRE (<a href="/wiki/Stuttgart_Hauptbahnhof" title="Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof">Stuttgart</a>–<a href="/wiki/Plochingen_station" title="Plochingen station">Plochingen</a>–<a href="/wiki/G%C3%B6ppingen_station" title="Göppingen station">Göppingen</a>–)<a href="/wiki/Ulm_Hauptbahnhof" title="Ulm Hauptbahnhof">Ulm</a>–<a href="/wiki/Biberach_an_der_Riss" class="mw-redirect" title="Biberach an der Riss">Biberach</a>–<a href="/wiki/Aulendorf_station" title="Aulendorf station">Aulendorf</a>–<a href="/wiki/Friedrichshafen_Stadt_station" title="Friedrichshafen Stadt station">Friedrichshafen</a>–<a href="/wiki/Lindau_Hauptbahnhof" class="mw-redirect" title="Lindau Hauptbahnhof">Lindau</a> (<a href="/wiki/Ulm%E2%80%93Friedrichshafen_railway" title="Ulm–Friedrichshafen railway">Ulm–Friedrichshafen railway</a> and <a href="/wiki/Fils_Valley_Railway" title="Fils Valley Railway">Fils Valley Railway</a>)</li> <li>IRE Stuttgart–<a href="/wiki/Reutlingen_Hauptbahnhof" title="Reutlingen Hauptbahnhof">Reutlingen</a>–<a href="/wiki/T%C3%BCbingen_Hauptbahnhof" title="Tübingen Hauptbahnhof">Tübingen</a>-<a href="/wiki/Balingen" title="Balingen">Balingen</a>–<a href="/wiki/Sigmaringen" title="Sigmaringen">Sigmaringen</a>–<a href="/wiki/Bad_Saulgau" title="Bad Saulgau">Bad Saulgau</a>–Aulendorf(–Ulm) (<a href="/wiki/Plochingen%E2%80%93T%C3%BCbingen_railway" class="mw-redirect" title="Plochingen–Tübingen railway">Plochingen–Tübingen railway</a>, <a href="/wiki/T%C3%BCbingen%E2%80%93Sigmaringen_railway" title="Tübingen–Sigmaringen railway">Tübingen–Sigmaringen railway</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ulm%E2%80%93Friedrichshafen_railway" title="Ulm–Friedrichshafen railway">Ulm–Friedrichshafen railway</a>)</li> <li>IRE <a href="/wiki/Karlsruhe_Hauptbahnhof" title="Karlsruhe Hauptbahnhof">Karlsruhe</a>–<a href="/wiki/Pforzheim_Hauptbahnhof" title="Pforzheim Hauptbahnhof">Pforzheim</a>-Stuttgart (<a href="/wiki/Karlsruhe%E2%80%93M%C3%BChlacker_railway" title="Karlsruhe–Mühlacker railway">Karlsruhe–Mühlacker railway</a>, <a href="/wiki/Western_Railway_(W%C3%BCrttemberg)" class="mw-redirect" title="Western Railway (Württemberg)">Western Railway</a>, <a href="/wiki/Mannheim%E2%80%93Stuttgart_high-speed_railway" title="Mannheim–Stuttgart high-speed railway">Mannheim–Stuttgart HSL</a>)</li> <li>IRE Karlsruhe–<a href="/wiki/Offenburg_station" title="Offenburg station">Offenburg</a>–<a href="/wiki/Villingen-Schwenningen" title="Villingen-Schwenningen">Villingen</a>–Singen–<a href="/wiki/Konstanz_station" title="Konstanz station">Konstanz</a>-<a href="/wiki/Kreuzlingen_railway_station" title="Kreuzlingen railway station">Kreuzlingen</a> (<a href="/wiki/Rhine_Valley_Railway" class="mw-redirect" title="Rhine Valley Railway">Rhine Valley Railway</a>, <a href="/wiki/Black_Forest_Railway_(Baden)" title="Black Forest Railway (Baden)">Black Forest Railway (Baden)</a>)</li> <li>IRE Ulm–Biberach–<a href="/wiki/Ravensburg_station" title="Ravensburg station">Ravensburg</a>–Friedrichshafen–Singen–<a href="/wiki/Schaffhausen_railway_station" title="Schaffhausen railway station">Schaffhausen</a>–<a href="/wiki/Waldshut_station" title="Waldshut station">Waldshut</a>–<a href="/wiki/Tiengen_(Hochrhein)_station" title="Tiengen (Hochrhein) station">Tiengen</a>–<a href="/wiki/Basel_Badischer_Bahnhof" title="Basel Badischer Bahnhof">Basel</a> (<a href="/wiki/Ulm%E2%80%93Friedrichshafen_railway" title="Ulm–Friedrichshafen railway">Ulm–Friedrichshafen railway</a>, <a href="/wiki/High_Rhine_Railway" title="High Rhine Railway">High Rhine Railway</a>)</li> <li>IRE Ulm -
