A group of young travelers with luggage stands near an Italo high-speed train, which arrives at Venezia Santa Lucia railway station in Venice, Italy, on November 16, 2025. Although ICE trains are seen as Deutsche Bahn's leading product, many passengers feel frustrated by frequent delays and high fares. Meanwhile, new competitors enter the market, raising expectations for cheaper tickets and more reliable service. Both the state-owned Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane (FS) and the private high-speed operator Italo (formerly NTV) intend to introduce modern high-speed trains in Germany.
