Keira1 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 The German railway system is going down the drain. They have had enormous problems the last year : big delays, all the time, many malfunctions and breakdowns. Not only big delays, but also trains cancelled and chaos on the train station totally overfull with people stuck there waiting for a way to continue. Also, a lot of other problems that they have no control over: Many (many!!) suicides jumps on the tracks, and also sabotages on the tracks, blocking the flow, which happens very regularly and too often, for no apparent reason. Germany seem to be falling apart, things are truly messed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
