Zugchaos in Hanau: Descension ensures massive delays!

in Hanau there was a dramatic incident on Friday morning: a train derailed at the main train station while shunting and caused massive disorders in rail traffic. The Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund (RMV) reported numerous failures and delays, especially on the route between Frankfurt and Fulda, where the affected ICE trains had to be diverted. At peak times, the delays were up to 70 minutes before the situation gradually normalized at around 9 a.m.

Deutsche Bahn indicated that the derailed train was empty and the causes of the incident are currently being examined. A route closure for the rescue of the wagon is still up for discussion. Travelers are urgently asked to find out about the current developments before starting travel to avoid nasty surprises. Further information can be found on the platforms of the railway, such as www.fr.de .
