The river cruise industry continues to expand at a furious pace, with a new player in Europe and a new product in the Pacific Northwest.

Plus, another operator is offering luxury train transportation to its riverboats in the Heartland. Here are the latest developments.

Niche operator Cruise & Maritime Voyages is introducing cruises on the Rhine and Danube rivers starting in May, John Dennis, vice president of CMV North America announced.

The company will operate the Vienna I river ship, which he described as a ?premium-plus vessel? that has French balconies on most staterooms.

?Over 80 percent of our guests have indicated they would consider taking a river cruise, and the general feedback from our trade partners re-enforced that this would be an excellent complement to our current ocean cruise program,? Dennis said.

The first cruise, the seven-night ?Magical Rhine? itinerary from Nuremberg to Amsterdam, will depart May 19\. Then it will operate two 14-night cruises between Amsterdam and Budapest departing May 26 and June 9\. Seven-night segments are available.
