Munich: Human error on the track – near catastrophe averted – Munich

It’s this “what if” that makes the matter so tricky: What could have happened when an S-Bahn shot over an unsecured level crossing on Feldmochinger Straße at 140 kilometers per hour? Or another time a train with 73 items crossed that open level crossing in the middle of Munich? It was pure luck that no people were injured in either case. The responsible barrier guard, Günter P., is now sitting in front of the district court. He admits a mistake – and talks about questionable working conditions at Deutsche Bahn.
