dormouse1953I travelled from Dortmund to Berlin yesterday. Trains at Dortmund were subject to delays when I got to the station just after ten. My train, due at 10:48 was marked as running five minutes late, but arrive about 35 minutes late. It got into Berlin about an hour late.
Being so used to delays on British trains, I thought nothing of this, but when I came down to breakfast this morning, there was a copy of the local paper on the counter and I noticed a big picture of a railway line. I just googled for news of German trains and I see there were a number of arson attacks on the lines Sunday night that led to the delays.
