ICS Express

Intercity Star Express, or ICS Express, is the name for the three high speed rail services operated by Ivalice National Railways in Ivalice. ICS Express currently operates on three services, ICSe Capital, ICSe Midlands, and ICSe North Shore. ICSe uses tilting trains imported from the United States to travel at high speed on the extremely curved portions of the routes.

The ICS Express is the fastest level of rail service in Ivalice, averaging speeds of 125 mph (201 km/h). ICS Express is popular with business travelers between the major cities in Ivalice, and has captured around 33% of air travel between Ivalion and [[

Capital Route
The ICS Express Capital Route travels between Koiwai Central Station and Ivalion Union Station with a scheduled travel time of five hours without stops. It is the heaviest travelled high speed rail line in Ivalice, connecting three of the four most populous cities in Ivalice. After the Capital Regional, this is Ivalice National Railways' second most-profitable service. Work is currently underway along the Capital Corridor to add a fourth track and possibly build a dedicated high-speed line next to the existing right-of-way.

Midlands Route
The ICS Express Midlands Route travels between Londinium King Marche Station and Randgriz City Charing Boulevard Station with a scheduled travel time of three and a half hours without stops. The Midlands route is significantly slowed by the mountainous terrain between Randgriz City and Londinium.
