Chaos in rail traffic: what the emergency medicines for travelers mean!

Chaos in rail traffic: what the emergency medicines for travelers mean!

rail traffic in several regions of Germany was affected by serious disorders on Tuesday evening. In Siegburg, the route between Siegburg and Troisdorf was completely closed due to an emergency doctor. This measure meant that the S-Bahn from Cologne towards Hennef ended prematurely in Troisdorf, while the traffic connection went smoothly from there again. A rail replacement traffic by bus was set up between Troisdorf and Au (Sieg). Regional and long-distance trains subsequently had to wait up to an hour or were diverted to Siegburg without stopping, which led to delays and failures. This reports Ga.de .

A similar picture showed itself at the Stuttgart Central Station, where on Tuesday evening there was a temporary complete block due to a rescue operation in the track. An 83-year-old man died in the track area on site, which is why the police did not provide any further background information. In order to ensure security rescue workers, the federal police blocked the area over a large area. The fire brigade confirmed the need for this block that had a massive impact on the after -school service. On the tracks 1 to 5 and 12 to 16, the trains were able to drive again at the first missions by the emergency services around 6:10 p.m. From around 7 p.m., rail traffic also normalized on the remaining tracks. However, passengers reported chaotic conditions and sometimes considerable delays. This information comes from SWR.de.

In other parts of Germany, especially between Nuremberg and Munich, a similar incident caused massive disabilities in rail traffic. There the "Allersberg Route" was temporarily closed after an emergency doctor on the track between Kinding train station and the Nuremberg main train station. Regional trains from Munich had to be diverted to Ingolstadt, which meant a detour via Augsburg and Treuchtlingen for travelers to Nuremberg. Long -distance trains to Hamburg and Berlin were also affected here. Despite the termination of the emergency doctor's operation, there were still train failures and subsequent delays, which presented travelers with additional challenges, such as nn.de reported.

The events show how critically emergency medicines in the track area can not only influence the safety of those involved, but also the smooth running of rail traffic. Travelers in the affected regions had to adapt to considerable restrictions and delays, while the responsible mobility services tried to minimize the effects.
