context_page_description: InterCity is the classification applied to certain long-distance passenger train services in Europe. Such trains generally call at major stations only.
  An international variant of the InterCity trains are the EuroCity trains which consist of high-standard coaches and are run by a variety of operators.
context_section_description: InterCity trains link all major cities of Belgium. Some of them serve also destinations outside the country. The IC between Liège and Brussels travels at 200 km/h on the HSL 2. However, because of the density of the train network with many connecting lines and the many small- and medium-sized cities in Belgium, most IC services also call at smaller stations or continue as local trains on branch lines.
