S-Bahn chaos in Berlin: Storm causes massive disorders!
Erkner, Deutschland - It was a stormy Friday, June 27, 2025, and the Berlin S-Bahn does not come to rest. Today there are considerable disorders in S-Bahn traffic that result from the effects of the storm the day before. As a result, numerous lines had to be temporarily discontinued, and long -distance transport continues to fight with restrictions, especially on the routes to Hamburg and Hanover. Deutsche Bahn Regio Berlin Brandenburg reports numerous failures, which significantly affects the travel plans for many commuters. While the situation gradually stabilizes, there are still some lines that have to struggle with delays or interruptions. This reports Berlin Live .
The normal operation of the ring railway lines S41 and S42 has now been resumed at 12:21 p.m. Line S9 also runs again continuously between BER Airport and Spandau. Other lines such as the S1 are limited: it currently only runs between Oranienburg and Hohen Neuendorf as well as between Wannsee and Schönholz every 10 minutes. Further disorders can be found in lines S3, S5, S7 and S9 that are temporarily affected due to technical problems or weather -related failures.
special measures and construction sites
The rail replacement traffic is also particularly problematic, which today does not come about due to the weather conditions. For rail travelers who were on the S1 between Schönholz and Hohen Neuendorf, replacement traffic has been set up, which, however, also does not work smoothly everywhere. Furthermore, travelers between Erkner and Spandau have to expect further delays, since the S3 initially only runs between Erkner and Charlottenburg and there are still difficulties on most other routes of the S-Bahn. The train traffic between the Westend and the Bundesplatz also reports delays, such as s-railway berlin added.
