The affected S-Bahn lines S41, S42, S8 and S85 had to be set for the duration of the use.

The fire brigade was alerted after reports about a fire entered the track bed. The fire caused by a small amount of garbage and rubbish could be quickly brought under control. However, the use of the fire brigade was delayed because the power supply for the trains had to be switched off before the emergency services could work.
