InterCitySlovenija links the major cities of Slovenia in one line: Ljubljana, Celje and Maribor, with frequent service that acts as a high-speed shuttle. Tilting trains can reach a maximum speed of 160 km/h on the sections Maribor - Pragersko, Pragersko - Slovenska Bistrica and Grobelno - Sentjur.[3] The train is made up of three cars: two 2nd class cars and one 1st class car. The trains provide disabled access, as well as an onboard Wi-Fi and a snack bar.
Slovenske železnice bought in the year 2000 three trainsets, which currently operate on the Ljubljana - Maribor route.
