In August, when the Rhine Valley Railway was completely closed, the diesel shuttles on the left bank of the Rhine showed their best side. Around 20 freight trains per day travelled the route through Alsace thanks to an initiative organised using diesel locomotives on the non-electrified line Wörth-Lauterbourg-Strasbourg-Offenburg. This highlights the need to expand the tracks on the left bank of the Rhine in France to ensure the stability of combined transport on the north-south axis.

Estonia is taking a significant step forward in implementing the large-scale Rail Baltica project. A contract has been signed for the construction of a unique section of the railway line, where part of the route will pass through a deep trench. This 9.2-kilometre section between the villages of Soodevahe and Kangru will be one of the most unusual on the entire route. Its construction will cost €70.8 million and will be carried out jointly by OÜ Verston and OÜ Järelpinge Inseneribüroo.
