information on German
Railways Germany is the largest and most active railroading country in Europe. A look at the map reveals that the country of over 80 million people is in the crossroads of the continent. Like the observation on the trainorders.com shows, there might be trains every few minutes both ways on the busiest double tracked segments! The mighty operator of the country is Deutsche Bahn but due to the EU open access policy there are currently more than a dozen other operators too on the German tracks (The state owns the track and every operator may use it). While much of the traffic is on the freight side, Germany also has a lively passenger traffic on local, regional, national and international levels. DB has started a strong presence in the international operations due to open access for passenger side from the beginning of this year.  German Railroad

 | Super High
Speed Trains and
Networks of Germany You have probably heard of the German ICE (Inter City Express) super high speed trains. Only rivalled by TGVs of SNCF in France, the operator DB currently has a formidable fleet of ICE 1, ICE 2 and ICE 3 trainsets in use and more in order to fullfill the capacity needs for national and international super high speed travel. While the futuristic rolling stock is the pride of the DB, the state of Germany has been gradually building its high tech super high speed concrete runways for its trains, currently over 1000 km of this track is already in use.
