Tabplanchaos at the turn of the year: DB announces delays in Hesse!

Deutsche Bahn provides information about upcoming timetable changes in Hesse and Rhineland-Palatinate. The background to the changes is a short -term disease of signal box staff who will lead to impairments in train traffic.

The restrictions will come into force on December 31, 2024 at 8:00 p.m. and last until January 1, 2025 at 6:00 a.m. Several lines are affected, including the RE2 and S-Bahn lines S8 and S9. The RE2 will be on the road from Frankfurt (Main) Hbf via Mainz Hbf and Bingen Hbf to Koblenz Hbf, with trains from Koblenz Hbf end in Rüsselsheim prematurely. The S8 is diverted between Raunheim and Frankfurt am Main-Stadium and does not stop at the Kelsterbach, Frankfurt (M) Regional train station and Frankfurt Airport (Main)-Gateway Gardens. In addition, there will be no operation of the S-Bahn line S9 during the period mentioned.

recommendations for passengers

To compensate for the impairments, Deutsche Bahn recommends passengers to use the S8 between Wiesbaden Hbf and Frankfurt (Main) Hbf. In addition, replacement traffic with buses between Raunheim and Frankfurt (Main) gateway Gardens for the S8 and S9 is set up. For the buses, it is not possible to take a bicycle. The passengers are asked to inform themselves shortly before departure about the current operating situation on Bahn.de or in the DB Navigator app.

Further information can also be obtained by phone via the customer dialog in Hessen on +49 69 244 457 10. The report on the changes was updated on December 30, 2024 at 6:51 a.m. href = "https://www.news.de/reisen-und-leben/858259241/deutschebahn-in-hessen-und-rheinland-pfalz-umleitungen-und-zugausfaelle-im-frahfurt-m-flhafen-infos-ueber-aktuelle-db-marten-im-im--im--im-" reported.

In addition, Deutsche Bahn plans to expand the range of international train trips from December 15, 2023 and to advance the introduction of new ICE direct connections within Germany. This also includes the general renovation of the Riedbahn between Frankfurt and Mannheim, which was completed after a five -month construction period, which reduces the journey time between the two cities to around 40 minutes.
