S-Bahn operations have still not fully started after last weekend’s heavy snowfall, and Deutsche Bahn’s customers are facing new hardship: The German Locomotive Drivers’ Union has announced that it will be on strike from this Thursday evening through Friday evening. According to Deutsche Bahn, this will also affect S-Bahn traffic in and around Munich.
Even if passenger traffic is not due to go on strike until 10 p.m., the railway is expecting massive disruptions as early as 8 p.m., according to a statement. These would last until the night from Friday to Saturday. The S-Bahn will therefore run every 60 minutes during this period. The S8, which goes to the airport, every 20 minutes or 40 minutes.
The railway asks travelers to avoid journeys during this period if possible. For current information please refer to her website www.s-bahn-muenchen.de/aktuell or the Munich Navigator app at www.s-bahn-muenchen.de/app.
