Latest news: Recent European railway news highlights significant infrastructure investments and operational shifts. Spain approved a EUR 62m rail freight terminal in Cantabria (SICAN, Adif) to boost intermodal transport. DB InfraGO announced major infrastructure renewal on Germany's Berlin–Hannover corridor, causing diversions. Forwardis secured the ScandFibre Rail27 contract, linking Sweden with continental Europe, while Green Cargo will operate Stockholm's Årsta terminal.
