A scheduled modernisation of around 7 million euro will see the ICM fleet updated.
The renovated ICM trains provide 13% more seats, have a new interior, a bathroom accessible by wheelchairs, airconditioning as well as upgrades to the engine and connection systems.
OBIS provides a (free) WiFi-connection on board, along with in-train journey information provided through screens and (automated) vocal announcements through the trains speakers.
Usually in 2nd class there are 2+2 seats in the width of the train, sometimes 4 with the corridor on the side; Veolia had 3+2.
Trains without a toilet: In 2011 Nederlandse Spoorwegen announced that in the case of an incident causing a long stop of a train without a toilet and without the possibility of passengers leaving the train, NS will supply disposable bags, and allow the passengers entrance to the unused driver cabin.
