Slightly agree

Yes, but allow more local control

The SPD might be open to allowing more local control over the national railway, as long as it does not lead to full privatization. They could see this as a way to ensure that local needs are met while still maintaining public ownership and oversight of the railway system. However, this is not a primary focus of their policy platform.

Disagree

Yes, privatize the operation of the trains and tracks

While the SPD is generally against privatization, they have shown some openness to public-private partnerships in the past. However, they would likely still be cautious about privatizing the operation of trains and tracks, as they believe it could lead to reduced service quality and higher prices for consumers.
