Deutsche Bahn, Germany’s national railway company, is reportedly planning a significant reduction in its long-distance services. According to an article from DER SPIEGEL, the railway giant intends to eliminate 21,000 seats from its long-distance train network. This move could have substantial implications for passenger capacity and travel experiences across Germany.
Unfortunately, the full details surrounding this decision, including the specific reasons behind the seat reduction and its potential impact on routes or passenger numbers, remain largely inaccessible.
