The new times aren’t out yet, but I think it is unlikely that the night train will run outside the summer peak.

PLUS that there is now also the SJ-new overngiht onward to STOckholm and the snälltaget (which also stops in a CPH suburb to more or less same timings as the summer-only DSB dieselset under the wires).
It also seems a bit unlikely to me that someone would only buy this sector-so you can also check DB and they have mailed me several times as ´valued customer with BC´ that it will be 2 month advance=from 12/10. Oh-that is today!

I think you may find that the DB timetable is not complete until the "foreign" companies released their timetable. A similar situation arose with ÖBB and SBB when they released their timetable.

Is there any date yet on the hauled sets taking over this route from the DMUs?
nothing since July when talk was for spring 2023 and that was a ballpark rumor at best

Presumably that is reliant on when DB can provide the stock? Siemens have delivered all the locomotives.

The last two locos arrived a couple of weeks ago. There are reports that from sometime next year they will work with hired DB coaches (IC1?) until the Talgo arrive, which probably won’t be until 2024.
The night IC's will run almost daily from December 16th to January 2nd. The only exception is the night after Christmas Eve and New Years Eve.
Copenhagen-Hamburg 17.12. - 2.1. (departure is at 00:01 from Copenhagen, so it's the same nights the trains run in each direction)
Hamburg-Copenhagen 16.12. - 1.1.
Tickets for the international trains are one sale now. Tickets for domestic trains in Denmark through Christmas will be put on sale on October 19th.
The switch to IC1 coaches is planned to be on April 11th. But there is still a lot to be done before that can happen including the approval for the DSB Vectrons to run in Germany. Currently they are only allowed to run on ATC in Denmark. They are equipped with ETCS, LZB and PZB but Siemens has yet to deliver the software needed for the integration of those train control systems in the DSB Vectrons.
The coaches also needs to be approved for the Great Belt Tunnel.
