Train service to Sylt is disrupted, causing delays
A points failure on the railway line between Niebuł and Westerland has disrupted train traffic to and from the island of Sylt since early this morning. The disruption, which occurred at Lehnshallig, has affected both regular and car trains, causing delays and cancellations.
Initially, the railway anticipated that delays could continue until September 20, but recent updates suggest that repairs are progressing well, and trains are now expected to run regularly from tomorrow morning.
Single-line operation has been the only feasible mode of train operation on the affected section since the disruption began. Despite the challenges, technicians have been working tirelessly to resolve the issue, as stated by a spokeswoman.
No trains were able to run between 5.45 AM and 9.30 AM, causing significant inconvenience for passengers. After the disruption, train traffic was resumed with restrictions, but these are expected to continue until tomorrow.
The specific details about the technicians working on the repair of the barrier block malfunction between Niebuł and Westerland are not publicly available. However, the railway is confident that the repairs are on track and that normal service will be restored soon.
Passengers are advised to check the latest updates on the railway's website or contact customer service for the most accurate information regarding their journeys. The railway apologises for any inconvenience caused and thanks passengers for their understanding and patience during this disruption.
