More punctual trains, faster digitalization? The state-owned company wants to solve its enormous problems with the new network subsidiary Infrago. But doubts are growing as to whether it will work.
The location should be a program: Deutsche Bahn had invited politicians and managers to the Berlin Futurium, a future museum on the banks of the Spree in Berlin, just a stone’s throw from the main train station. Where the makers want to show in modern architecture how people want to live in Germany in the future, the railway wanted to start the founding of its new network company. The message: The company knows what to do to combat the Germans’ frustration with the railways.
