The name Diamant, Flemish for diamond, refers to the city of Antwerp, which is the European centre of diamond trade[1] and has a diamond district. The initial service started in 1962[2] as a first-class-only FernTriebwagen linking the West-German capital Bonn with Antwerp, using a class {{Interlanguage link multi|DB Class VT 08|de|3=DB-Baureihe VT 08}} diesel multiple unit (DMU). Trans Europ ExpressThe Diamant was upgraded to Trans Europ Express (TEE) on 30 May 1965.[3] The VT 08 was replaced by DB Class VT 11.5 DMUs formerly used in the TEE Helvetia, after the latter was changed to an electric locomotive-hauled consist. The route in Germany was altered as well; the Diamant no longer stopped at Bonn and started/ended in Dortmund instead.[4] In May 1966, only one year into the train's TEE era, its western terminus was changed from Antwerp to Brussels (South/Midi), disconnecting the "Diamond" (Diamant) from the place that had been the inspiration for its name.[5] Many alterations in the route followed during the electrification works along the route, sometimes reaching as far east as Hannover. On 29 May 1976, the Diamant was withdrawn.[6][7] The Diamant was reintroduced on 27 May 1979, again as a TEE but no longer an international service, instead taking over the Munich – Hamburg section of the Blauer Enzian.[8] It operated on Mondays to Fridays only.[9] After two years this second Diamant was withdrawn from service. InterCityThe third Diamant was a two-class DB Intercity service linking Hamburg with Stuttgart via Cologne, from 29 May 1988 until 1 Juni 1991. Although normally a non-international service, the IC Diamant was extended to (and from) Innsbruck on Saturdays during some periods, including at least January through May 1991.[10] References1. ^TEE, p. 20. 2. ^La Légende des TEE, p. 241. 3. ^TEE Züge in Deutschland, p. 112. 4. ^Das grosse TEE Buch, p. 85 5. ^La Légende des TEE, p. 179. 6. ^La Légende des TEE, p. 240. 7. ^Thomas Cook Continental Timetable (May 30–June 30, 1976 edition), p. 6.
