Was ist mit der Deutschen Bahn passiert?
Ich bin von 2004 bis 2008 regelmäßig quer durch die Republik mit der Bahn gependelt. Teils mit Touren von bis zu 10 Stunden. In den seltensten Fällen, hatte ich mit Verspätungen und Unpünktlichkeit zu kämpfen. Man konnte sich immer auf die Bahn verlassen.
Seit einem halben Jahr greife ich ob der hohen Spritkosten erneut auf die Bahn zurück. Von 40 Fahrten verliefen 7 (!!!) problemlos.
Entweder blockiert irgendwo ein Zug ein Gleis, es gibt Signalstörungen weswegen man nicht weiter fährt, IC/ICEs kommen von vorne herein zu spät, dann fallen Züge aus, weil kurzfristig irgendwas repariert werden muss, Zugausfälle aufgrund von Personalausfällen etc…
Alles in Allem kann ich davon ausgehen, dass die ausgeworfene Ankunftszeit ohnehin nicht gehalten wird.
Das war damals aber überhaupt nicht so.
Woran liegt das? Was ist da passiert???

The train should work cost-oriented and profitable, so it was saved where it is going, even where it is possible in the course of operation in theory, but in practice it is fatal (keyword Überholgleise), partly also on wear, since not enough money – also on the part of politics – has been invested, savings led to bonuses, delays and failures but not to Malus-Abzüge, i.e.
Just look who asked the Minister of Transport last year(tenth).
More than 1000 BMW sold than once repaired a train.
The other reasons you’ve already called.
I often drive MVV (Munich) and it is a single disaster. Almost every ride is something.
In many countries, train traffic is better today than in Germany (modern, punctual, better service).
The DB is ready.
But what is also due to the fact that in Germany every new building project is blocked by a citizens’ initiative.
We have to admit that we have ever worse infrastructure. And instead of looking abroad, let’s go outside our own door…
Munich is an example of old infrastructure, which is simply overloaded with time, but is installed from all sides without a buffer. How to know it from many German cities. Once a track hangs, it’s not going… and expansion works around, but not at the centers in town.
But what I perceive as the main problem in the MVV is people. Only after that are the technical points that repeatedly cause problems (single switches/signalings/control units). I don’t want to talk about rail suicides in Munich. There are plenty of door-stopping passengers, people on the track (why they had to fence the entire trunk line now) and people who are incapable of perceiving messages and ads.
I also do not know why the latter is such a massive problem with us in Germany. Apparently, in other countries, people have just figured out how the system works and are able to use the train normally instead of stopping the operation.
To give the passengers the main debt for the marodous conditions on the train is already strange.
Yeah, and I’ve been a little bit down-corrected – but the influence remains damn big. See you every day.
As for the broken ticket machines… I haven’t seen it for years. Defect air conditioning systems can no longer be, but good – this may be in long distance traffic or even individual vehicles, but this is really not. SEV and train failures are correct – but I strongly distinguish between circumstances and cause. Not for everything can the web what and accordingly relaxed one can face it.
You wrote word literally, you see people as the main problem.
I’m not talking about a few minutes late. I speak of permanent train failures, constant rail replacement traffic, which does not work, of defective air conditioning on hot summer days, permanently broken ticket machines etc.
Not the main debt, but a fairly large proportion of disorders is caused by people for which the DB nix can – with the rat tail that then moves on.
If that were not, the number of other disturbances would be at least bearable, especially since not every individual soft disorder means a “marod” state.
It’s not all going well at DB, but it’s not all the same disaster scenario.
The only time I drove train was my military service, which has long been. But then there was nothing different about punctuality at the railway than today. So all normal I think 😁
The Misee der Bahn has many reasons.
One of them is that rail transport has become more populous and more trains (distance, transport and goods) go essentially on the same routes as 20 years ago.
Another reason is that after its transformation into a public limited company and on the way to the stock exchange, the railway was mercilessly trimmed to profit and the network was driven to wear.
And the third important reason is that we are now finally moving the refurbishment stowage on the routes, which is in turn associated with many construction sites and slow-moving sites.
The DB was privatized. Although this happened many years before, the privatization continued to ensure that, for example, many tracks were shut down during the period after 2004. Another big problem: The train deserves its money mainly with freight transport. The priority is therefore not, as many people think, primarily on passenger transport. And I’m afraid you’ll notice that.
In addition, there are still the problems of high staff shortages. On the one hand, the railway generally has been looking for staff in several areas for several years and does not find enough, on the other hand, the disease levels are currently very high everywhere. Only last week in the ÖPNV on the buses has emergency schedules come again because so many bus drivers are sick. Several bus lines also fall out completely. There are also problems with DB, of course, which ultimately lead to failures or delays.
For several months, I have not been able to occupy a landing gear, which means that hundreds of trips per week are on an important route. In some cases there are very short-term failures because the staff reports sick.
And when I look into other regions, we are still very good.
This even happens at the post office. Two weeks ago no letters were sent here for three days — no staff.
Jup, such incidents are then, of course, a little surprising somewhere.
The Deutsche Bahn or the railway industry generally suffers from 2 factors: a considerable lack of personnel and a completely neutered infrastructure.
In contrast to the road, our infrastructure has not been significantly expanded in the last 30 years since privatization, the few routes that are built/was mainly used for prestige and not operation, regardless of whether the SFS Berlin – Nuremberg, Wendlingen – Ulm or Shit21.
DBAG has an estimated 20 billion euros in debt.
Reconstruction of tracks, neglect of infrastructure for financial reasons (the refurbishment would have to pay the railway, the new building [after collapse and years of unusability] would be financed by the federal government), incompetent managers from auto-concerns, job reduction and focus on meaningless large-scale projects instead of actually required construction work, ventilation, wrong business models. The train deserves a large part of their money with truck drivers abroad.
The DB has become a bunch of junk since it has been converted into a AG.
