Böschungenbrand: Railway near Eschede remains closed until evening!
TRAUGHT planning for many rail passengers in northern Germany is currently head. The railway line between Unterlüß and Eschede in the district of Celle has been closed since the early afternoon. The reason for this is an embankment fire that endangers the safety of the railway. According to NDR so far no more precise information is known. A review of the overhead lines is currently underway for damage, and the blocking could continue until late in the evening.
long -distance trains are diverted via Rotenburg, which means that delays of up to 30 minutes can be expected. Especially for travelers who are traveling in cities such as Celle, Uelzen or Lüneburg, this means that they have to reckon with fancy. However, the regional trains of the metronome have taken care of and offer a replacement of rails where buses drive between Uelzen and Celle, with holding in Suderburg, Lüß and Eschede.
travelers in the queue
Unfortunately, passengers report hours of waiting times, which are due to the insufficient number of buses used for up to 600 travelers. There is also criticism for the misleading information about the waiting resorts, since it is not clear whether you should wait on the train or on the platform. The metronome recommends that travelers plan more time for their journey.
In addition to the difficulties on the route between Unterlüß and Eschede, there are also further disturbances in long -distance transport. A defective ICE had to drive from Hamburg to Munich at a reduced speed to Eschede. There was another incident in which a train had to stop due to a medical emergency.
a confusing location
These completely chaotic circumstances are not uncommon in the German rail network. Disruptions caused by fallen trees, damage to vehicles or overhead lines are always on the agenda. The initiative Disruptions in rail traffic is a valuable point of contact for information on closures and disabilities that works on a voluntary basis and independently of the rail traffic companies. Travelers are asked to find out about current restrictions in the route network.
For those affected, the travelers concerned will only be hoped that the situation can be mitigated soon so that they can achieve their goal safely and without further complications. Such incidents often also raise questions about safety in rail traffic and illustrate how important a well -functioning route network is. We will continue to keep you up to date.
