Chaos on the rails: Emsland train travelers fight with delays!
Chaos on the rails in the Emsland! On Tuesday and Wednesday, rail travelers experienced a real nightmare when a defective signal box between Leer and Aschendorf paralyzed the train connections. The Westfalenbahn trains (RE15) also remained anything but on time on Thursday morning. The delays are no longer quite as dramatic as on the previous days, but many passengers also had to prepare for late arrivals that day. The IC trains through the Emsland also did not run according to plan. Blame for this misery? "Delay from the previous trip" and "delay of a previous train" was the sober explanation of the Deutsche Bahn.
A spokeswoman for Deutsche Bahn announced that the disorder at the signal box is expected to be remedied in the course of Thursday. But the info came from the Westfalenbahn that there is no central reason for the delays on Thursday morning. The problems can no longer be connected to the defective signal box; The location had been stable again for around 11:10 p.m. Nevertheless, rail travelers hope that the new connections will develop better on Thursday.
Continued construction work: rail replacement traffic between Rheine and Emsdetten
Safe flowers of hope bloom in the middle of difficulties! Punctuality could return for further trains on Thursday morning, because according to the timetable information, most Westphalia railways and ICS should leave on time. But the joy does not last long: regardless of signal box problems, there are still restrictions on the trains between Emden and Münster. Bridge work between Emsdetten and Rheine ensure that the RE15 until October 31st fails between these stations. Instead, replacement buses run, and travelers have to expect longer travel times.
The situation remains tense and the rail customers have to be patient - a test that nobody likes to take!
