[[Deutsche Bahn AG|Deutsche Bahn]] (German Rail) is the major German railway infrastructure and service operator. Though Deutsche Bahn is a private company, the government still holds all shares and therefore Deutsche Bahn can still be called a state-owned company. Since its privatisation in 1994, Deutsche Bahn AG (DB AG) no longer publishes details of the tracks it owns; in addition to the DB AG system there are about 280 privately or locally owned railway companies which own an approximate 3,000 km to 4,000 km of the total tracks and use DB tracks in ''open access''.
[[InterCityExpress]] ya da diğer adıyla ICE Deutsche Bahn tarafından kontrol edilen bir hızlı tren grubudur. Bu trenler Almanya'da büyük şehirler arasında ya da ülkeler arasında seferler düzenlemektedir. Sefer düzenlenen şehirlerden bazıları [[Zürich]], [[Viyana]], [[Paris]], [[Amsterdam]], [[Liège]] ve [[Brüksel]]'dir. Demiryolu sistemi küçük şehirler arasında da yaygındır. Küçük şehirlerden de en az her iki saatte bir düzenli olarak trenler geçmektedir. Bununla beraber bütün büyük kent alanlarında [[S-Bahn]], [[U-Bahn]] ve [[Strassenbahn]] hizmet vermektedir.
There are significant differences between the financing of long-distance and short-distance (or local) trains in Germany. While long-distance trains can be run by any railway company, the companies also receive no subsidies from the government; instead, the long-distance trains receive no direct subventions for current operations. Local trains however are subsidised by the German states, which pay the operating companies to run these trains. This resulted in many private companies offering to run local train services as they can provide cheaper service than the state-owned Deutsche Bahn. Track construction is entirly and track maintenance partly government financed both for long and short range trains.
The [[InterCityExpress]] or ICE is a type of high-speed train operated by Deutsche Bahn in Germany and large cities in neighbouring countries, such as [[Zürich]], [[Vienna]], [[Paris]], [[Amsterdam]], [[Liège]] and [[Brussels]]. The rail network throughout Germany is extensive and provides excellent services in most areas. On regular lines, at least one train every two hours will call even in the smallest of villages. Nearly all larger metropolitan areas are served by [[S-Bahn]], [[U-Bahn]], [[Strassenbahn]] and/or bus networks
