Following similar initiatives at other railway operations, Transdev—through its brand Mitteldeutsche Regiobahn (MRB)—launched a special "KidsExpress" in Saxony on Saturday, October 24, 2026.

Highlights

  • Transdev’s Mitteldeutsche Regiobahn (MRB) launched a special KidsExpress in Saxony on October 24, 2026.
  • The experience took place on the RB 110 line between Leipzig and Döbeln.
  • Children stepped into railway roles, checking tickets and taking part in train-themed activities.
  • Highlights included visiting the driver’s cab and making an announcement over the train’s public address system.
  • The trip continued with a visit to the Karls Erlebnisdorf theme park in Döbeln.

On the RB 110 line between Leipzig and Döbeln, children were invited into a specially designed carriage where they could playfully step into the roles of railway staff and enjoy an exciting, train-themed journey. Equipped with high-visibility vests, caps, signal paddles, toy tickets, and ticket punches, the young "customer service agents" checked the tickets of their accompanying adults and fellow passengers. A major highlight was the chance to visit the driver’s cab and even make an announcement over the train’s public address system.

A variety of games and interactive activities kept things lively throughout the trip. The enthusiasm was palpable, and it quickly became clear that some of the children were natural-born train drivers or customer service staff. Upon arrival in Döbeln, the children and their companions continued their day at the "Karls Erlebnisdorf" theme park, where a day pass allowed them to explore all the attractions to their hearts' content.

The MRB team was delighted by the positive response to the KidsExpress—and, above all, by the many beaming faces they were able to bring to their young passengers.
