Latest news: Siemens Mobility secured a €3bn contract from Italo for 26 Velaro Multi System high-speed trains with 30-year maintenance in Germany. Concurrently, Deutsche Bahn is implementing a nationwide alcohol ban across all German stations from September 1st for enhanced safety. A market study by SCI Verkehr forecasts significant European after-sales growth and highlights battery-electric multiple units as the preferred traction for partially electrified networks, a trend reinforced by HŽ Passenger Transport's €53.6 million order for six Končar BEMUs in Croatia.
