Latest news: The Federal Network Agency in Germany has revised 2026 track access charges, decreasing freight rates by 12-14% and long-distance passenger rates by 17-18%, while increasing regional passenger charges. Concurrently, Germany’s Bundesnetzagentur will limit DB Fernverkehr's capacity to foster competition. In Italy, RFI secured EUR 4bn for network investment. EUROFIMA is financing 94 new regional trains for České dráhy in the Czech Republic, including PESA RegioFox and Škoda RegioPanter units. VTG will close its German intermodal wagon workshop by end-2026 due to viability issues.
