These measures are part of a comprehensive renovation program of Deutsche Bahn, which will provide an investment of 53 billion euros by the end of 2027. The focus is on renovating existing infrastructure and significantly improving operating quality. In this context, the train plans to make 400 train stations more customer -friendly and to introduce the latest technology to improve operational efficiency, including the replacement of 200 outdated signal boxes, to reduce train failures, such as Deutschebahn.com explained.

Another example of the efforts to modernize the rail network is the modernization concept of the 480 series of S-Bahn Berlin.

The measures are intended to extend the lifespan of the S-Bahn trains by about ten years and significantly reduce energy consumption, reports System-bahn.net .

With the modernization, Deutsche Bahn relies on a future -oriented infrastructure that meets both the requirements of growing commuter traffic and the demands of passengers.
