DB (Deutsche Bahn) also has a nice collection of red trains.

Why would Norway use Italian trains instead of building it's own? A train that runs on viking war cries and Asgard mead.

Aerodynamic as a brick, what's the top speed?

Around 220 KPH (locomotive is the limitation) - 140MPH

They have a lot of red trains. Pretty much all but the ICE (pronounced "its say eh")

I got Kinja'd a bit there. The train pictured is a NSB Type 69, and were built in Norway during the 70's. They were renovated 10 years ago and are still in use (I use them frequently).

The new trains (Type 74 and 75) appearing in Norway now are produced in Switzerland by Stadler, and they seem quite cool and are red as well.

Kinja'd!!!

We've had some trains and trams from AnsaldoBreda in Italy as well, but those haven't been a success.. Those weren't red either.

Wow, that's more red there, than at a firetruck exposition. They should change it to silver arrows, um...silver.

Of course, it's a train.

That's actually one of the modifications for the Norwegian version. It's because of the snow and the moose that they're going to hit once in a while. Swiss version below:
