Deutsche Bahn’s planned stock market flotation due to take place in late October was postponed because of the global financial crisis, but it has not been scrapped. News of lucrative executive payouts linked to the flotation have attracted considerable criticism. At the moment, DB managers are traveling the world on the hunt for investors and new business ventures. Germany’s rail company is aiming to expand internationally with the help of its subsidiary DB-International. It has a staff of 800 and is involved in big infrastructure projects: from the building of a rail line through Saudi Arabia to the training of high-speed-train drivers in Taiwan. Only Germany and France have drivers who are experienced enough to drive these trains. Now they’re helping to train their Taiwanese counterparts. Michael Altenhenne has visited the Deutsche Bahn’s subsidiary in Taiwan.

“taiwanese” shinkansen? nono that was developed in Japan and shipped to taiwan.
made in Japan and shipped to taiwan
I already love the German Train System and Asia is far superior on that as well…I can only dream of something like this in the states.
If the state train system was like anything in Germany and most of Europe and Asia, I would EASILY ride the train more often than take a plane…
DB sucks balls here in Germany. The Berlin main station is overcrowded and chaotic, and regional trains are expensive, slow and not very reliable. Also the measures taken to get the conglomerate called DB ready for the stock market have postponed many repairs on the overall rail system. Don´t fall for that hype, they suck big time.
nothing is perfect my friend
japan sullpts the trains,germany trains the drivers, if gremany leavs taiwan the deathe rate will rise.
german trains are essentially over heated airless grief holes more often than not manned by grisly women with precious little people skills…deutsches bahn is a disgrace. plastic folk fill their adverts, and the trains otherwise are empty. my advice, forget trains in germany and get a lift or walk. a pox on deutsches bahn and its scummy suffocation boxes they have the gall to call trains. engineering?a pathetic smokescreen.
strangelver the word they like DB. personally in germany we have only problems. they are too expensive, too less service. the passangers don’t count at all, only the quotation. and the regionaltrains are not in focus of DB, DB only pushes the ICE… but this great train is just too expensive and doesnt help for short rides at all. I personally hate DB, private companies are much better here.
german trains…regional, express..surely the least pleasant way to travel in that country.
i find them airless, full of coughing passengers, no fresh air at all, climate controlled is a joke, they are noisy, the announcements on board are too loud.
ironic..volume cannot be controlled by the onboard staff…but by engineers at the train siloes…climate control is a joke….i would rather walk. a fart on german trains.they really deserve instant upgrade via a drastic new service.
We have experience in leaves of the line lol
db is to comfortable rail travel what excrement is to romance.
over warm, noisy, airless nightmare-thats the reality of db imo.
made in germany is some of the best quality in world
