The Netinera Germany GmbH (proper spelling: Netinera , to March 2011 Arriva Germany ) is a rail transport company in Germany. It is a subsidiary of Trenitalia , the passenger transport division of the Italian state railway Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane .

Company history

Netinera was founded in Hamburg in 2003 under the name Arriva Germany as a wholly owned subsidiary of the British transport group Arriva PLC . With the takeover of the Regentalbahn in 2004, it moved its headquarters to Viechtach .

In March 2010, Deutsche Bahn announced a public takeover offer for the parent company Arriva with a value of EUR 2.8 billion; the transaction was completed in late August 2010. As part of the cartel clearance required for this , the German parts of the company had to be sold. Arriva Deutschland was sold at the beginning of December 2010 to a consortium of the Italian state railway FS via its subsidiary Trenitalia (51% of the shares) and the Franco-Luxembourg infrastructure fund Cube Infrastructure (49%). In this train, Arriva Germany was renamed to Netinera.

Business areas

Netinera's subsidiaries operate both local rail and bus services on behalf of regional authorities as well as their own bus, rail freight and long-distance passenger transport. Netinera operates local rail passenger transport in the federal states of Bavaria, Berlin, Brandenburg, Bremen, Hamburg, Hesse, Lower Saxony, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Rhineland-Palatinate, Saarland, Saxony and Thuringia.
