Latest news: Recent developments in Europe include German rail operator Helrom entering liquidation. Concurrently, Kombiverkehr reported a 13.5% decline in consignments due to German rail infrastructure works, prompting calls for compensation and expansion into terminal operations. On the innovation front, Italy's ANSFISA authorized 14 Alstom hydrogen trains for Lombardy (H2iseO project) for a 2027 launch, marking a significant regional deployment. DB Cargo Automotive also expanded its German fleet with 60 CRRC car carrier wagons for battery-electric vehicles.
