DB Rail construction

DB Rail Construction is the full service provider for the planning, construction and maintenance of infrastructure facilities, in particular rail infrastructure, including the provision of train operating services.

• Hybrid drive in track work vehicles: The hybrid track work vehicle No. 11 is a more sustainable addition to DB Rail Construction’s machine fleet. The hybrid track work vehicle is used on construction sites, transports rails, ties, switches and construction materials and has a powerful working crane. The vehicle can be used on all track classes of the rail network. Thanks to its diesel-electric drive with battery, a more environmentally friendly mode of operation is possible, for example locally emissions-free in tunnels. The charging current required for the battery comes largely from converted braking energy or is charged stationary.
• EnerRail: The EnerRail fuel cell system is a product of DB Rail Construction. As a powerful and more sustainable emergency power system, it can be used in various applications in the critical (rail) infrastructure. While diesel-powered emergency power systems release pollutants, the EnerRail is locally emissions- and pollutant-free. Only water and water vapor are emitted.
