Article: Christmas train 2025: DB Cargo puts Coca-Cola truck tour on climate-friendly rails
We at DB Cargo are delighted to be working with Coca-Cola again in 2025 to bring the popular Christmas train tour to the railways. The partnership between DB Cargo and Coca-Cola has been in place since 2016. Just like Deutsche Bahn and DB Cargo, Coca-Cola Europacific Partners is also aiming for climate neutrality along its entire value chain by 2040.
Update at the end of the tour:
With the last two stops in Münster and Heidelberg, the Christmas Train Tour 2025 has now come to a successful end - and we can look back on many emotional, cheerful and atmospheric moments. The new pictures once again show the special atmosphere at both stations, the great enthusiasm of the visitors and the festive Christmas train, which made eyes light up everywhere. Together with our customer Coca-Cola, we were able to experience a wonderful tour that showed how sustainable Christmas joy can be transported by rail.
Update from 04.12.2025:
Before we reach the next stop on the Christmas train tour tomorrow, we don't want to deprive you of today's impressions from Giessen. The new pictures show the festive arrival of the Coca-Cola Christmas train at Giessen Central Station, the many beaming visitors and the activities relating to sustainable rail transport. Another special tour moment that our teams made possible together with Coca-Cola.
