Deutsche Bahn AG
 PROFILE
German state-owned railway Deutsche Bahn is trying to stay on track toward privatization, though financial losses have derailed plans for an IPO by 2004. The railway's main units, DB Regio (local trains) and DB Reise & Touristik (long-distance trains), carry 1.6 billion passengers a year throughout Germany and to neighboring countries. The company's DB Cargo unit transports 71.5 billion ton-kilometers of freight yearly. Other holdings include a train station management unit and a stake in German phone company Mannesmann Arcor. The German government is using money from its mobile phone license auctions to modernize the country's dilapidated rail tracks. Deutsche Bahn is cutting noncore operations.
