Eisenbahnnetzwerk Bremen-Niedersachsen

Eisenbahnnetzwerk Bremen-Niedersachsen (EBN) is a cooperative network of railway companies operating in the Bremen-Niedersachsen region of Germany. Founded in 2001 by five railway companies, the network was established to jointly offer rail freight services and to maintain and strengthen the existing rail infrastructure in the Elbe-Weser region. The network's members include regional railway operators such as Bremen-Thedinghauser Eisenbahn GmbH (BTE), Bentheimer Eisenbahn, Delmenhorst-Harpstedter Eisenbahn GmbH (DHE), Emsländische Eisenbahn GmbH (EEB), Eisenbahnen und Verkehrsbetriebe Elbe-Weser GmbH (EVB), Ilmebahn GmbH (ILM), Mindener Kreisbahnen GmbH (MKB), Verkehrsbetriebe Grafschaft Hoya GmbH (VGH), Verden-Walsroder Eisenbahn GmbH (VWE), and Verkehrsgesellschaft Landkreis Osnabrück GmbH (VLO). The network's philosophy is centered on the idea that "the future lies on the rails" (Die Zukunft liegt auf der Schiene). By collaborating closely with other railway companies, EBN aims to ensure high efficiency in rail freight transport. The partners are committed to preserving the existing rail infrastructure in the Elbe-Weser area, the districts of Diepholz, Oldenburg, Verden, and Walsrode, the Grafschaft Hoya, as well as in Delmenhorst and Bremen. The network offers customers integrated transport solutions, including pre-carriage and on-carriage, and ensures service coverage across the region. EBN operates as a coordination and information platform rather than a railway operator itself. Its administrative functions are handled by e.g.o.o. Eisenbahngesellschaft Ostfriesland-Oldenburg mbH, based in Hildesheim. The network's website serves as a central point of contact and information for customers and partners. Through its cooperative approach, EBN contributes to the competitiveness and sustainability of rail freight in northwestern Germany.

The Eisenbahnnetzwerk Bremen-Niedersachsen was founded in 2001 by five railway companies. Its creation was driven by the need to jointly offer rail freight services and to maintain the existing rail infrastructure in the Bremen-Niedersachsen region. Over the years, the network has expanded to include additional railway operators. As of January 2021, the network comprises ten member companies: Bremen-Thedinghauser Eisenbahn GmbH (BTE), Bentheimer Eisenbahn, Delmenhorst-Harpstedter Eisenbahn GmbH (DHE), Emsländische Eisenbahn GmbH (EEB), Eisenbahnen und Verkehrsbetriebe Elbe-Weser GmbH (EVB), Ilmebahn GmbH (ILM), Mindener Kreisbahnen GmbH (MKB), Verkehrsbetriebe Grafschaft Hoya GmbH (VGH), Verden-Walsroder Eisenbahn GmbH (VWE), and Verkehrsgesellschaft Landkreis Osnabrück GmbH (VLO). The network's administrative office is hosted by e.g.o.o. Eisenbahngesellschaft Ostfriesland-Oldenburg mbH in Hildesheim. The network continues to promote rail freight and regional rail infrastructure in northwestern Germany.
