Train failures in Schleswig-Holstein: Construction work in June!
Railway traffic in Schleswig-Holstein will be facing major challenges again in the coming weeks. Current reports show that the routes between Kiel, Plön and Lübeck are particularly affected by train failures. As reports [kn-online.de] (https://www.kn-online.de/schleswig-holstein/zugausfaelle-hute-in-bahn-bahn-juni- 2025-fzq6ekyujnesxaw4kfcokq4z6u.html), construction work is the cause of the restrictions in regional train traffic, which is based on both Deutsche Bahn as well as on other providers have an impact.
The RE7 line, which runs between Flensburg, Kiel, Neumünster and Hamburg, is particularly affected. There is no stop in Hamburg Dammtor until June 21, and from June 30th to July 6th there are some trains during the evening between Hamburg Central Station and Neumünster. Even early in the morning and at night there will be failures between Rendsburg and Flensburg in the week from July 7th to 13th. For commuters and travelers, this means an additional planning task.restrictions on other providers
The Nordbahn is also not spared from construction work. According to the information from Nah.SH, there is a special timetable during the Kiel Week, which also leads to nightly train failures between Kiel, Eckernförde and Flensburg. Replacement traffic by bus are planned, but it remains to be seen how well they will work. It was also announced that the train journey to Bad Oldesloe will be affected in the coming months, where no trains do not run between 4th and 7th July.
The Erixx Holstein, on the other hand, remains spared from the construction work until further notice and, as usual, offers connections between Kiel, Plön and Lübeck, which is a welcome relief for many passengers.
preparation for the future
But not only the current train failures have inconvenience. The new timetable, which comes into force on December 15, 2024, provides for profound changes. Savings due to the lack of federal funds affect less than 1.5% of all connections, but these are primarily in outskirts and show that public transport faces further challenges. In addition, from January 1, 2025, the planned Germany ticket will bring additional changes in ticket sales for 58 euros per month, while 450,000 subscribers to Schleswig-Holstein are now using the new offer.
The changeover to battery trains is another exciting topic that will shape the railway landscape in Schleswig-Holstein. Until the change of timetable 2024/2025, the old diesel trains are to be replaced by modernized battery brackets. This not only promises to reduce CO2 emissions, but also more comfort for travelers with new seat covers, WLAN and sockets.
In summary, it can be said that the train drivers in Schleswig-Holstein will have to expect many imponderables in the near future. There is a lot of movement in rail traffic, and travelers should always find out about current connections. According to the latest reports from [ndr.de] (https://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/schleswig-holstein/zugausfaelle-aktuelle-aktuelle-aktuelle-info-zum-bahn-schwig-Holstein, 3512.html), it was recommended to examine the timetables in advance to avoid unpleasant surprises.| Details | |
