Latest news: Recent developments highlight shifts in European rail. In Austria, ÖBB Group's freight competitors now hold nearly 48% of the market. Hungary's rail freight faces rising costs and weakening demand. CFL in Luxembourg, with Eviden, is initiating a phased transition from GSM-R to FRMCS. Poland plans a 2 million TEU rail-linked terminal at Świnoujście, while Alstom opened a new parts hub in Salzgitter, Germany. New intermodal corridors are launched by HŽ Cargo in Rijeka and Automar/FS Logistix in Italy.
