The service stopped at 18 railway stations, including the major German cities of Stuttgart, Frankfurt, Hanover and Berlin.

In 2012, Locomore sold its holdings in Hamburg-Köln-Express GmbH to concentrate on launching its own rail service in competition with Deutsche Bahn.

Since June 2015, Locomore had raised funds through a crowdfunding campaign, allowing private individuals to invest in the company via pledges and donations.

[2] In August 2017 Czech open access train operator LEO Express acquired some Locomore assets including its leased rolling stock and the majority of the staff and the brand.

As is also the case for other private operators in Germany such as Hamburg-Köln-Express and Thalys, tickets are unavailable through Deutsche Bahn points of sale.

Early bookers pay lower prices and could choose between multiple service levels, and all tickets were nominative and included seat reservations.

The cities Vaihingen an der Enz, Heidelberg, Darmstadt, Frankfurt am Main, Hanau, Fulda, Kassel, Göttingen, Hannover and Wolfsburg were connected with Stuttgart and Berlin.

[11][12] An in-seat trolley service of snacks, hot and cold drinks, and small meals (salads, sandwiches) was available.
