Chaos at Munich Central Station: Trains fight against delays!
On Saturday, October 11, 2025, passengers at Munich Central Station had to be patient. Due to a short circuit caused by birds, there were massive disruptions to regional traffic. This unexpected disruption meant that trains both to and from Munich Hbf were temporarily unable to enter or exit, resulting in a tight situation for many travelers. Fortunately, the repair of the affected overhead line between Munich Central Station and Pasing has now been completed, so that traffic can resume, reports merkur.de.
The short circuit turned out to have serious consequences: birds had presumably sat on an insulator, which tore the overhead line and triggered the fault. Deutsche Bahn technicians worked quickly to repair the damage and restore operations. But despite the quick response to the problems, travelers had to reckon with significant delays and short-term train cancellations. This mainly affected the regional trains, including the lines RB 6, RB 60, RB 65, RB 66, RB 74 and RE 70, such as br.de reported.
Current traffic situation
Although the repair work has now been completed, it is advised to remain vigilant. Passengers should continue to expect delays and short-term train cancellations cannot be ruled out. In particular, travel between the main train station and Pasing may still be restricted. Passengers are recommended to use the S-Bahn lines S3, S6 and S8 as alternatives to reach the main station quickly you notice.
