Funkwerk, one of the first companies to adopt D back in 2008, switched their passenger information system from Java and C++ to D. They weren't just on the look out for something different. They had a real problem to solve, tried out a few languages, and settled on D. They're still using it today (they moved from D1 to D2). And if you're riding certain rail networks in Europe, you're benefiting from it.
