Latest news: The `Stuttgart 21` project in `Germany` faces significant cost increases to €14.5bn and delays, with phased commissioning now until 2033. Positively, timber freight operations have resumed at `Germany`'s `Falkenhagen` terminal, transporting 1,426 tonnes. `Stadler` is manufacturing new InterCity trains for `Hungarian` operator `GYSEV`, with testing across `Hungary`, `Romania`, and `Czechia` from late 2026. Separately, `Rail Cargo Group (RCG)` established a circular rail logistics system for `Befesa` between `Sweden` and `Germany`, reducing road traffic. `Hitachi Rail` also completed its acquisition of `Clever Devices` to enhance digital transport solutions.
