Train traffic in the crisis: children play dangerously on the track!

An incident on the tracks of the Hamburg - Berlin railway line caused some excitement and considerable delays in train traffic on Saturday evening. Two girls aged 12 and 14 had stayed on the tracks near Grabow and played there. This risky action led to a temporary blocking of the route, which lasted about 50 minutes and led to a delay of 32 trains by 1178 minutes. As voice.de , the train driver of a freight train noticed the two children and stopped his train in good time.

The state police found the two girls near the Grabow station and immediately handed them over to the federal police. Fortunately, the children remained unharmed, which is not a matter of course in such an incident. "Trains run at high speed, are quiet and often difficult to recognize," explains the federal police in a statement. These dangers should not be taken lightly, especially not by children and adolescents who can often not assess the consequences of their actions, such as Federal Police
