The Deutsche Reichsbahn , also known as the German National Railway, the German State Railway, German Reich Railway, and the German Imperial Railway, was the German national railway system created after the end of World War I. In August of 1933 Robert Ley, leader of Reich Labor, demanded that those administrators working for the German Labor Front be married only to German individuals. The Deutsche Reichsbahn took the lead in discriminating against intermarried workers, firing German employees married to Jews and forbidding intermarried Germans from working there in the future, starting in November of 1933. The Reichsbahn had an important logistic role in supporting the rapid movement of the troops of the Wehrmacht. In all the occupied lands the Reichsbahn endeavoured to incorporate the captured railways into their system. Even towards the end of the war the Reichsbahn continued to move military formations. For example, The logistics of the Reichsbahn were crucial to the conduct of Germany’s military offensives. The preparations for the invasion of Russia saw the greatest troop deployment by rail in history. Even in preparations for the Battle of the Bulge (from 16 December 1944), tank formations were transported from Hungary to the Ardennes by rail.
