Rail Advertising in Germany

We plan rail media across Berlin, Munich and Hamburg in Germany. Station panels and carriage cards reach people who are standing still, often for several minutes. That is a different read from a roadside face passed at speed. Each station is named, with the panel, before you are asked to book. Tell us the dates and the budget, and we will send a site list within 48 hours.
