    Deutsche Bahn moves Germany. Every day.

    One railway. Reliable. For everyone.

    Infrastructure

    We operate a 33,400 kilometre-long network with 5,400 stations, which are used by 450 railway companies and 50,000 trains every day.

    Passenger transport

    Every day, more than five million people travel with Deutsche Bahn - in ICE and Intercity trains, in regional express trains or in regional and suburban trains.

    Logistics

    DB Cargo replaces around 80,000 lorry journeys across Europe each day, offering a climate-friendly alternative.

    A railway we can be proud of.

    With its new “DB 2035” strategy, Deutsche Bahn is charting its course for the next decade. The focus is on reliability, quality, and a noticeably better customer experience. Success will depend on a comprehensive transformation of the company, empowered decentralized entrepreneurship, and a profound cultural change. Central to this transformation is a culture where performance is valued and responsibility is rewarded.

    Travelers who plan their trips in Google Maps can now view detailed train schedule information in real time, and can book tickets faster by linking straight to the DB booking system

    Rail is a climate-friendly travel option, and Deutsche Bahn and Google are now offering a more user-friendly way to plan rail travel in Google Maps. Google Maps now shows users live information about train service and offers direct links to DB's ticket booking site, making it easier to plan travel and buy tickets.

    Travelers can find information on some 800 daily ICE, IC and EC connections in real time, and they can access live data on departure and arrival times. Google Maps also now displays live updates on track changes, weather-related service restrictions and the like.

    Travelers who plan their trips in Google Maps can link directly to the DB website to buy their tickets. In just one click, they are routed straight to the booking page for their connection at www.bahn.de or in DB Navigator. There they can select and purchase tickets without having to enter their travel information again.

    DB and Google are working on additional train travel planning features that they plan to launch as part of their partnership going forward.
