Turn old into new!

True to the motto "Make new from old". DB Regio has completely modernized the old RB20 Euregiobahn railcars both inside and out.

Among other things, the cars have received a new coat of paint and decals on the outside, as well as a new interior.

The interior fittings include new seats, new monitors, USB charging stations and a modern video system ViSenSys GmbH .

The video cameras help both for security monitoring, to give passengers more security, and as an automatic passenger counting (APC), in which the entries and exits are documented.


"With this, we don't want to monitor passengers, but for once we want to be able to give reliable information about the number of passengers in the vehicles. This is a pilot project. At some point, we may also be able to communicate to the passenger in which part of the train a seat is still available."
