Rail Services
A few long-distance services stop at Boppard station in the early morning and late at night. These make similar stops at minor stations on the route between Hamburg and Frankfurt. The Mittelrhein-Main-Express (Koblenz–Frankfurt) operated by DB Regio also stop every two hours and the MittelrheinBahn (Koblenz - Mainz) operated by trans regio stops hourly in Boppard. In the peak hours extra services run between Koblenz, Boppard and Mainz. At the timetable change in December 2010, transregio took over its services from Deutsche Bahn. In addition, Rhenus Veniro operates the Hunsrück Railway between Emmelshausen and Boppard central station or Boppard Süd.

Famous quotes containing the words rail and/or services:
“We rail at trade, but the historian of the world will see that it was the principle of liberty; that it settled America, and destroyed feudalism, and made peace and keeps peace; that it will abolish slavery.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“We now in the United States have more security guards for the rich than we have police services for the poor districts. If you’re looking for personal security, far better to move to the suburbs than to pay taxes in New York.”
