Train failures in Hesse: DB warns of disorders on December 7th!

Deutsche Bahn raises the alarm! Travelers in Hesse have to adapt to massive restrictions on train traffic. On December 7, 2024, between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., due to a sudden illness of signal box staff, partial and train failures in the Frankfurt area (Main) will come. The railway has already announced the lines concerned and the location is tense!

The S-Bahn line S1, which runs from Wiesbaden Hbf via Frankfurt Hbf to Rödermark-Ober Roden, will only drive every 30 minutes. It looks even more dramatic for the RB22: here most trains between Hofheim (Taunus) and Frankfurt (Main) Hbf are canceled! Travelers should prepare for significant delays, especially because of the home game of Eintracht Frankfurt, which attracts additional passengers. Deutsche Bahn recommends using the S2 as an alternative to cope with the route between Niedernhausen (Taunus) and Frankfurt (Main) Hbf.

Important information for travelers

Deutsche Bahn advises all passengers to find out about the current operating situation before departure. The information is available on the website Bahn.de or the DB Navigator app. In addition, travelers should pay attention to the announcements and advertisements at the train stations and in the trains.

The punctuality of Deutsche Bahn remains a hot topic! In 2023, only around 64 percent of long -distance trains were on time. Construction sites, renovations and technical disorders are common reasons for delays. The situation is tense and travelers have to adjust to unforeseen changes!
