GermanyThe Czech State Railways (Ceske drahy) has undergone a leadership change amid criticism over shortages of toilet paper on trains. Lenka Hamplova, a trained engineer and the first woman to hold the position, has taken over as CEO from Michal Krapinec, who resigned due to personal reasons. The controversy began when Parliament President Tomio Okamura criticized Krapinec for receiving numerous complaints about the lack of toilet paper. A spokesperson for the railway stated that three million rolls of toilet paper are provided annually. Additionally, Krapinec lost his clearance to access classified documents after failing a background check by the National Security Office. The new CEO aims to transform the railway into a 'healthy, modern, and confident' company. Czechia boasts one of Europe’s densest rail networks, with nearly 9,344 kilometers of track, and private companies like Arriva and Regiojet are increasingly competing with state railways.
