[edit] History
The company was founded in February 2002 using the name MetroRail. It is owned by three companies; these companies have been mainly owned by the three federal states involved in the project. Ownership is divided between the NiedersachsenBahn GmbH (69,9 %), Hamburger Hochbahn AG (25,1 %) and Bremer Straßenbahn AG (5,0 %). The NiedersachsenBahn GmbH itself operates as a holding and is owned by the Osthannoverschen Eisenbahnen AG (OHE) (60 %) (located in Celle) and the Eisenbahnen und Verkehrsbetriebe Elbe-Weser GmbH (40 %) (from Zeven). Thru its majority ownership of OHE since April 2007, the British transport company Arriva now owns approximately 30 % of the Metronom capital.
