Afraid of taking the ICE?
Hello, I am going to Hamburg by ICE soon and I am really scared because there was a train accident in Eschede in 1998 and this train was also on its way to Hamburg. Could something like this happen again?

Were savings made in the wrong places?
As you've probably all heard, a tragic train accident occurred near Garmisch-Partenkirchen on June 3rd. RIP on the scene. Exactly 24 years ago, on June 3, 1998, a train accident, the worst in Germany, occurred in Eschede. Coincidence? I don't think so.
In the train accident yesterday, it was reported that three people were dead under the overturned train. How did they get under the train if they were already on it?
Single-track line between Schäftlarn and Ebenhausen. Ebenhausen is double-tracked, and the Schäftlarn stop is single-tracked. Technical errors have already been ruled out. It couldn't have been the train from Schäftlarn, because it was probably traveling up to the Ebenhausen entry signal. Apparently, that's where the train crossing occurred. Then it can only be the train…
What is the difference between: "traffic accident involving a train", "train accident" and "railway accident"? Is there one or can everything be put into the same category? Thanks for all the answers! 🙂
