On the afternoon of 23 September 2026 DPB 193 804 hauls a tank train towards Krefeld through Krefeld-Oppum. Due to the busy passenger traffics at Oppum, a freight passing through is here a rather rare sight.

Freight rollercoaster at Neuwied: on 30 April 2026 DB Cargo 193 335 hauls a southbound LKWWalter intermodal freight through Neuwied. Tu-Sa Neuwied sees massive flows of freights since it is sited between Köln and Koblenz on the right Rhine bank (Rechtsrheinisch in German) where most freights between the two cities are directed -the left Rhine bank tracks (Linksrheinisch in good German) sees the long distance passenger trains that do not use the Köln-Frankfurt HSL.
