VTG Group has combined the wagon hire operations of its local companies in the context of a crossborder merger and asset sales in a one-stop operating company based in Germany, the VTG Rail Europe GmbH, with independent branch offices in the local markets.

The Hengeler Mueller team included partner Johannes Tieves, counsel Peter Dampf and associate Miriam Peter (all Financing, Frankfurt). Advice on the corporate reorganisation was provided by partner Daniela Favoccia and associate Thomas Lang (both Corporate, Frankfurt).
