Latest news: Stadler is producing new InterCity trains for Hungarian operator GYSEV, marking Hungary's first such procurement in decades, with service planned from 2027 across Hungary, Romania, and Czechia. Meanwhile, Rail Cargo Group (RCG) launched a circular rail logistics system for Befesa, transporting 15,000 tonnes of salt slag annually from Sweden to Germany, significantly reducing truck journeys. Separately, Leo Express inaugurated a new international rail service linking Frankfurt, Germany, with Przemyśl, Poland, though the Polish segment currently requires bus transfers due to ongoing regulatory review.
