In an interview with “Stern,” CEO Palla indicated that the company will concentrate on rail transport, limiting ancillary services to those that are financially viable. This decision raises questions regarding the future of operations such as the bike-sharing service “Call a Bike” and the car rental service “Flinkster.” Furthermore, Palla confirmed that Deutsche Bahn will withdraw from international projects in countries like India and Uruguay, marking a significant shift in its business strategy. This realignment follows the divestiture of its European subsidiary Arriva and logistics arm DB Schenker prior to Palla’s tenure.
