How the material is read

Read the feed

The supplied snapshot contains 126 unique items from reachable feeds; 88 were published in the previous seven days. Later headline rows are stored as title, source, date, language and link only.

Keep the original

We display original title + source + link only. No source article text, lead paragraphs, images or machine translations appear here.

Separate the facts

Structured framework values and lot-holder fields are ours, taken from the cited notices. Estimates, source limitations and SAMPLE formats stay explicit.

Verification & corrections

Category D uses the later VEAT estimate. The hero shows four categories, including Category B.

A zero-result topic or company check is limited to the reachable snapshot.

Corrections: info@railscope.eu. Please identify the page and the source or field to correct.

For publishers

This week across Europe: TED method

TED Search API v3; publication dates 24–30 Oct 2026 inclusive; read 31 Oct 2026. All notice types counted. Counts are by buyer country, not project location. 319 rail notices. A daily read can replace the homepage count, company award rows and euro totals when the TED and ECB fetches both succeed. A failed read keeps the last good figures and date.
