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.

The immediate action programmes for a better railway.

More efficient, more reliable and determined to permanently and noticeably improve quality for passengers.

The modernisation of the infrastructure takes time. We are implementing three immediate action programmes so that customers can see that things are improving at DB: for improved cleanliness and security at our stations. For greater comfort on long-distance services. For a better customer information. For these three programmes, we are investing a total of more than 140 million euros in DB in 2026 alone.  

Even cleaner trains and ever more reliable service in our dining cars make train journeys even more comfortable and attractive. 

Increased presence of security staff, additional cleaning and quick repairs at railway stations ensure that people enjoy their stay and get to their trains in comfort.  

In future, DB will provide customers with even better information before and during their journey - both on the train, at the station and in digital information channels. 

DB Engineering & Consulting has some 4,000 employees from 66 countries, who contribute their expertise in all disciplines relevant to rail. The company works in design and construction supervision, in fields such as structural engineering, transport facilities and electromechanical engineering; design and acceptance testing; environment, geotechnical engineering and surveying; and project management and consulting. Within Germany, DB E&C is represented by a number of locations in DB's seven regions. Worldwide, it has offices in 28 countries on six continents.

Retrospect: Deutsche Bahn has reorganised its infrastructure engineering business. As of 1 April, DB ProjektBau and DB International had been merged. DB's expertise in national infrastructure projects and its international engineering and consulting expertise are now consolidated in a single company: DB Engineering & Consulting.
