S-Bahn: Delays on many lines

Fri 9th Apr, 2010

Munich. A Signal disturbance on a main line early friday afternoon resulted in a large number of interferences on the S-Bahn line.

The error, which has subsequently been repaired, was caused by the axle counter at Marienplatz. According to the Bahn all lines should operate normally, but there will be delays of five to ten minutes on all services.

Earlier in the morning the 10-minute lines S8, S4 and S3 were out of service and there were major disruptions on the S1, S3 and S7 lines.
