RSRG hands Over New Wendlingen-Ulm Line
With the Deutsche Bahn timetable change on December 11, 2022, the new Wendlingen-Ulm line has been put into operation. The final touches were provided by colleagues from Rhomberg Rail Technology, who equipped and prepared the project with fixed track. The project was delivered on time and within budget.
"With the installation of the fixed track and the railway technical equipment, we are responsible for the final work steps before commissioning a route. When we're gone, the train runs."
