Switzerland suspends Deutsche Bahn trains due to chronic delays
Briefly

Switzerland's Federal Railways (SBB) has canceled two Deutsche Bahn rail connections at the border to address severe delays from the German operator. These services, which previously continued into Switzerland, will now terminate at Basel, requiring passenger transfers. SBB has decided to introduce additional trains on these routes to minimize inconvenience. The decision stems from growing frustration over DB's chronic lateness, with a significant percentage of trains on routes from Munich to Zurich canceled recently. SBB attributes these issues largely to DB's corporate structure and infrastructure shortcomings.
SBB's decision to halt two DB routes highlights their frustration with chronic delays impacting Swiss rail punctuality, prioritizing efficiency in their operations.
Vincent Ducrot of SBB noted that overly complex corporate structures and a lack of digitization within DB are prime contributors to the ongoing delays.
