Firefighters lead to Bahnchaos: Nuremberg-Bamberg only with detours!

Forchheim, Deutschland - Where is the trip to Bavaria going? There are currently some riots in rail traffic between Nuremberg Hbf and Bamberg. The reason for this is fire brigade operations that have led to fire damage on the route. According to blocked. This has a significant impact on regional train traffic.

The regional trains are currently in Bamberg and do not continue to drive between Nuremberg Hbf and the Upper Franconian city. The S-Bahn line S1, which normally comes from Nuremberg, is also discontinued prematurely in Forchheim. But don't worry that Deutsche Bahn has made it: replacement traffic on buses between Forchheim and Bamberg has been set up. However, a high capacity and longer travel times are expected.

The punctual arrival of the trains remains a challenging task for Deutsche Bahn. As the figures show, punctuality in 2023 in long -distance transport was around 64%. Even though the DB Regio had a decent punctuality of 92 to 93% in the first quarter of 2023. Whether there are construction sites, renovations or disorders of vehicles, the reasons for delays are diverse.

punctuality in focus

The fact is that the entire system of Deutsche Bahn is further challenged. In the first half of 2024, punctuality showed a slightly improved value in rail passenger traffic of 90.1%. Nevertheless, the situation remains tense in long -distance transport, where punctuality was only 62.7%. Here, too, the influence of construction sites and overloaded infrastructure should not be underestimated. However, Deutsche Bahn has taken concrete measures to stabilize the quality of operations, including the action plan punctuality and a revision of the quality plan.
