City Night Line, abbreviated CNL, was a train category of German railway company Deutsche Bahn for overnight passenger train services between Germany and neighbouring European countries. In late 2015, Deutsche Bahn announced that it planned to terminate all night train services in December 2016,[1] and this plan was implemented on 11 December 2016.[2] The service on some CNL routes was replaced by ÖBB Nightjet services.[2][3]
