U-train chaos! BVG struggles against mysterious notification errors on U2

The BVG, Berlin's most important transport company, is known for its subways, buses and trams. But occasionally there are confusion that can trigger discomfort even among passengers. A striking representation error was recently found on the U2, which caused confusion. As Berlin Live , a nonsensical mix of lines U2 and U3 was seen on one of the digital displays. Passengers could see names such as Hohenzollerndamm, Fehrbelliner Platz and Heidelberger Platz, although the train was not at these stops.

The BVG said that it was a “system -based representation error” that occurs in individual vehicles. The company is already working on a quick solution to the problem. Despite this technical breakdown, the BVG emphasized that the passengers are correctly informed about the next station at any time, both visually on the screens and announce acoustically. However, the error could make it difficult to count the stations up to the own stop.

U2: times and information

Important information on the travel times of the U2 are also provided. The next U2 currently leaves the S Pankow station at 4:32 p.m. and reaches Ruhleben at 5:20 p.m. The entire driving time is 48 minutes. If you want to follow live whether the subway is punctual or not, you can use the transit app that offers real-time updates and information about the timetables, such as transitapp.com With 28 stations, the U2 is one of the central lines in Berlin, and the app helps passengers to plan their journey and be fully in the picture.
