Why bahnhof.de is changing to DB Info
Copy link to this sectionThe Federal Ministry of Transport’s ‘Agenda to Boost Rail Customer Satisfaction’ envisages a provider-neutral and non-discriminatory digital application for customer communication. For this reason, work has been underway since the start of 2026 to develop bahnhof.de into DB Info, which is now due to be launched on 17 November 2026.
And why DB Info?
At many stations, there is a place where you can get help: the DB Information desk. That is where the name comes from: DB Info refers to the familiar information point at the station.
