Latest news: Recent developments highlight significant investments in European rail. Poland's Centralny Port Komunikacyjny (CPK) received eight bids for a 14.3km high-speed rail section connecting Warsaw–Łódź, critical for new airport access by 2032. ÖBB initiated a strategic corridor upgrade in Tyrol's Lower Inn Valley, Austria, enhancing ETCS and capacity up to 220 km/h. In rolling stock, Thurbo commenced service with its first Stadler Flirt Evo trains in Zurich, part of a major Switzerland-wide renewal. Meanwhile, EUROFIMA provided a €4.5m loan to Bulgaria’s BDZ for 18 modernized intercity coaches.
