Railroad - Metronom: Still fewer train journeys due to staff shortages

In the new year, the Metronom railroad company can only offer a reduced number of train journeys for the time being due to staff shortages. The replacement timetable will be extended until February 3, as announced by Metronom on Tuesday. This means that in future there will no longer be any so-called booster trains during peak times. In addition, fewer trips will be offered on weekend night services, for example.

"The reason for the continuation of the replacement timetable is the continued insufficient availability of train drivers in the company - despite great efforts to recruit new staff," said a statement from the railroad company. The thinned-out Metronom timetable has already been in place for several months.

Metronom operates several regional routes - for example between Hamburg and Hanover, Hanover and Göttingen and between Hamburg and Bremen.
