COACH CLEANING - A CONTRIBUTION TOWARDS IMPROVING THE DB'S SERVICE OFFER

REINIGUNG DER REISEZUGWAGEN - EIN BEITRAG ZUR VERBESSERUNG DES LEISTUNGSANGEBOTES DER DB

The DB is using more and more modern coaches and spending large sums of money on coach cleaning and maintenance. The outsides of all coaches are cleaned once a week and the inside daily. Daily cleaning is done by wiping with a damp cloth, major cleaning is done monthly and there are other occasional cleanings. Luxury trains and trains which get very dirty in service always have a member of the cleaning staff on board. Keeping long-distance trains cleaned is particularly difficult.
