Latest news: Germany's Federal Network Agency reduced 2026 rail freight track access charges by 12-14% and limited DB Fernverkehr's long-distance capacity to boost competition. Meanwhile, Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (RFI) secured EUR 4 billion for Italian network upgrades. In Spain, Adif opened its expanded Noáin intermodal freight terminal, quadrupling capacity. Alpha Trains expanded maintenance and ETCS retrofit services with Talbot Services in Germany, while STORK Cargo ordered 70 wagons from Greenbrier Leasing Europe in Romania. EUROFIMA also funded 94 new regional trains for České dráhy (ČD) in the Czech Republic.
