Transdev GmbH is the largest private operator of passenger buses and trains in Germany. It is a subsidiary of Transdev. It was previously known as Veolia Verkehr GmbH (April 2006 - March 2015) and Connex Verkehr GmbH before that. The company is headquartered in Berlin. It has about 5000 employees and transports about 250 million passengers a year.
When Transdev GmbH was formed, the company absorbed most of the German operations of the "old" Transdev.
Transdev, as was the case with Veolia and Connex, operates dozens of subsidiaries, each with their own name. Most of them operate small, regional train and bus services.
Transdev’s German operations have been structured into four regions since April 4, 2005.
Region North includes the federal states of Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein and a short line in Denmark. In this region, the Niebüller Verkehrsbetriebe GmbH (NVB) and the Nord-Ostsee-Bahn GmbH (NOB) operate:
It is planned to extend these trains from Hamburg on to Berlin and Cologne under the operation of "Ostseeland Verkehrs GmbH" (OLA), which runs all Veolia long-distance trains in Germany. Unlike the trains between Sylt and Hamburg, the trains from Hamburg to Berlin and Cologne are not subsidised by any State of Germany
