Dispo-Tf Rail

Dispo-Tf Rail GmbH is a German railway undertaking (Eisenbahnverkehrsunternehmen, EVU) headquartered in Berlin. Founded on 29 July 2013, the company began as a railway personnel service provider and has since expanded into several segments of the railway industry. It holds a safety certificate (Sicherheitsbescheinigung) issued by the German Federal Railway Authority (Eisenbahn-Bundesamt, EBA) and operates nationwide across Germany. The company's core activities include railway personnel leasing (Arbeitnehmerüberlassung), where it supplies train drivers and other railway staff to other railway undertakings; acting as a licensed railway undertaking in rail freight transport, including dangerous goods transport; and providing training and further education for railway professions. Its training department, established in February 2022, focuses on qualifying career changers (Quereinsteiger) for railway roles such as train drivers (Triebfahrzeugführer), wagon masters (Wagenmeister), shunting locomotive drivers (Lokrangierführer) and shunting attendants (Rangierbegleiter). As a licensed EVU with a unified safety certificate, Dispo-Tf Rail can offer its own rail transport services in Germany as well as conduct training and further education. It also operates as a Betriebsleitzentrale (operations control centre) for other railway companies. According to its own website, the company positions itself as a versatile "Rail Hero" service provider and partner for all matters of the railway system. By 2023 the company had more than 250 employees, predominantly train drivers. Its managing directors since February 2022 are Hannes Pfeifer and Andreas Raasch. The company is a private limited liability company (GmbH) and is not listed on any stock exchange. It is active throughout Germany and describes itself as a medium-sized enterprise (mittelständisches Unternehmen).
