Hamburg to Frankfurt by train

There are now in effect four rail services available between Hamburg and Frankfurt (Main):
1 - These dominant ICE trains which usually race down the high speed line between Hannover and Fulda.
2 - A faster 'Sprinter' service aimed at business travellers, which departs shortly after 06:00.
3 - Other ICE trains which are slower as they don't use the high speed line, because they take a route through Marburg, but they also don't tend to be cheaper, so are best avoided.
4 - On Thursday to Monday there is usually the option of taking a Flix train service.
