DB Information counters are the place to go for information about your rail journey, and they serve as a meeting point for travellers and station visitors. If you have any questions about your trip or the town/city where the station is located, staff at the counter have the answers you need. If a station does not have a counter, our service staff are only too happy to help you with any query you might have.

The Triple-S concept is our masterplan for safety and customer focus at stations. Operating around the clock, Triple-S centres collect all important information regarding station processes. Some stations feature help points (emergency intercoms) that connect callers straight to the Triple-S centres.Stations also have their own security teams, while Germany's Federal Police handle safety issues in the rail network on behalf of the national government.Please note DB Station&Service AG's rules and regulations as well as locally published additions at the train station: they are designed to make your time at our stations safe and pleasant.
