Train service interrupted - Train-car collision results in track shutdown.
In the afternoon, a collision took place between a local train and a car at Eggesin, leading to a halt in train services to and from Ueckermunde until the evening. The German Railway shared the news of the affected trains on their schedule website.
The incident at Pasewalk Police Department's crossing showed the regional train rubbing against a car carrying one person around 3:00 p.m. It is suspected that the car unexpectedly moved forward since the driver might have accidentally disconnected the coupling. There were no injuries reported, whether from the train passengers or the car driver.
The train passengers had the option to travel using a substitute bus, while the affected train reached a storage track in Pasewalk as a vacant train. The tracks were temporarily shut down through the emergency command center.
