It's basically just a vanilla-flavored soda. Apparently there are some European varieties, according to the wikipedia page, but they must not be that popular if you've never heard of it.
You can get it in Germany but typically only in import candy stores. While I don't mind the flavor it's generally considered too sweet by people who try it.
Nothing to do with vanilla.
150 years ago, sure. Coca-Cola has neither coca leaves nor kola nuts these days though, and modern cream soda in the US is a vanilla-flavored amber beverage.
Fun fact, they still have coca leaves.
Wikipedia:
It always fluorescent pink whenever I've seen it.
"Red" cream soda is a slightly different drink. I'm not sure what the flavor is supposed to be, other than, well, red. But it's different from something like IBC Classic Cream Soda, which is amber.
