German State Railway

The German State Railway, known as Deutsche Bahn (DB), is Germany’s national railway company responsible for passenger and freight transportation. It was founded in 1994 after Germany reunified, transforming from the former state-owned Deutsche Reichsbahn and Deutsche Bundesbahn. DB operates an extensive train network including high-speed ICE trains, regional trains, and local services, connecting cities and rural areas across Germany and neighboring countries. It aims to provide efficient, safe, and sustainable transportation, serving millions of passengers annually. As a major logistics and transit company, Deutsche Bahn plays a crucial role in Germany’s transportation infrastructure and economy.
