Plans for Extensive European Tube Infrastructure Expansion Forecast Croatia's Inclusion
Friday, April 24th, 2025 - Europe's game-changer: Tube for Europe project revamps travel
Ever dreamt of zipping across Europe at breakneck speeds, making your way from London to Berlin in a mere three hours? The Tube for Europe project may just bring that fantasy to reality, with Croatia on board.
As Poslovni Dnevnik/VL/Goran Sudar reports, the Tube for Europe plan - a fast rail network to revolutionize travel throughout mainland Europe, the UK, and Ireland, featuring Croatia - is about to turn the travel scene on its head. The project is gaining steam with several European nations, and Croatia is joining the movement.
The Starline Vision: Dreaming big for Europe's futureThe Starline vision, a collaboration between the think-tank 21st Europe and tech-savvy design studios such as Bakken & Bæck and Culte Commune (with a presence in Oslo, Amsterdam, Bonn, London, and Barcelona), aims to unite the best European minds to cultivate designs that inspire and spark optimism for Europe's future.
According to their official website, the Starline plan is more than just a vision; it's a sustainable framework grounded in expert insights into mobility, infrastructure, and European policy[1].

A New Era for Rail Transport: Say Hello to Blue BulletsPromoted as an innovative solution for improving rail transport efficiency across Europe, the project remains shrouded in mystery regarding its location and debut event. However, the Tube for Europe promises train speeds of up to 400 km/h, significantly cutting travel times to major European destinations. For instance, travellers visiting Berlin from Helsinki can expect a hassle-free three-hour journey instead of the current entire day[1].
This European metro project aims to connect every European country, including the United Kingdom and Ireland, with each nation boasting at least one dedicated railway station. The network covers all corners of Europe, from Portugal to Turkey, and across to Ukraine[1].

Stations of Tomorrow: Cities United, Culture InspiredThe train stations planned for this cutting-edge network will serve as cultural hubs, located outside of city centers. These new stations are envisioned as active public spaces teeming with cultural facilities, squares, and events, becoming destinations in their own right[1].
The visual identity of the Tube for Europe network embraces the color blue, mirroring the European Union emblem to emphasize the project's European roots. The objective is for the blue trains to become as iconic as London's red double-decker buses or New York's yellow taxis[1].

This next generation of rail passengers can expect various zones tailored to their needs. These include “quiet zones” for work or focus, open spaces for social interactions, family zones with kid-friendly facilities, and “cafe zones” for passing time with refreshments aboard[1].
In addition to passenger services, Starline also seeks to develop a freight rail network for faster goods transport across Europe, enhancing logistics[1].

A Dream in Progress: EU Budget and National Governments' SupportAt this stage, the Tube for Europe project remains a concept. However, the project's creators hope that funding will come from the EU's budget, as well as contributions from national governments, to bring this ambitious project to life.

Croatia: A Key Player in Europe's Rolling RevolutionAccording to British media reports, plans for a high-speed rail network bring Bosnia and Herzegovina into the equation too. The proposed network ideally includes five corridors connecting trains, with Croatia situated in Corridor B[2]. This corridor, running from Lisbon, Portugal, all the way to Kiev, Ukraine, would involve a station in neighboring Sarajevo[2]. The published map hints that part of the corridor leading from Zagreb to Rome would go under the Adriatic Sea, posing a formidable construction challenge[2].
Pricing the Dream: A Promising, but Costly VisionDetails on the Tube for Europe's total construction costs are yet to be disclosed, owing to the project's conceptual nature. However, costs for similar infrastructure projects hint at significant investment, potentially surpassing billions of euros[2].
