caption_attribution_description: Deutsch: Nur für kurze Zeit, nämlich vom 27. Juli 1990 bis zum 29. September 1990 verkehrte eine VT11.5-Einheit als Intercity 'Max Liebermann' zwischen Hamburg und Berlin und wurde von der Deutschen Reichsbahn der ehemaligen DDR eingesetzt. Die Aufnahme mit DR-Logo hat daher Seltenheitswert.
context_page_description: The trainsets of Class VT 11.5 were diesel multiple units built by Deutsche Bundesbahn in 1957 and used for Trans Europ Express services. Perceived as flagships of the DB rolling stock, they carried first-class seating only. When the UIC numbering scheme became effective on 1 January 1968, the power heads of the trainsets were renamed to Class 601 whilst the middle cars became Class 901 according to the DB locomotive classification. They were used for TEE service from 1957 until 1972 and thereafter on German InterCity services.
context_section_description: The fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 led to a new life for the 601 as an InterCity train. One of the 10-unit trains was loaned from Italy to the East German Reichsbahn (DR) and served from July 27, 1990, to September 29, 1990, as InterCity Max Liebermann on the route Hamburg–Berlin. One part of this train had been later repainted blue-beige and is still to be seen at the Augsburg Railway Park museum. It today houses a restaurant run by celebrity chef Alfons Schuhbeck.
