The railway transport volume for substances emitting flammable gases in Germany is projected to decline steadily from 41.0 million tonne-kilometers in 2024 to 37.0 million tonne-kilometers by 2028, illustrating an incremental year-on-year decrease of approximately 2.5% annually. This reflects a calculated shift from the previous indicators in 2023, which were higher. Over the 5-year forecast period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests an average annual decline.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential regulatory changes impacting the transport of hazardous materials.
Technological advancements in safer, more efficient transport methods which could alter volume predictions.
Economic factors influencing demand for flammable gases.
