Hatnote

It's hard to see how a list of scheduled railway routes in Germany is ever going to be multi-sourced. There is only one authoritative source which is the DB timetable. So can we not remove the hatnote? The leded already states where it comes from. Bermicourt (talk) 17:58, 10 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Well, we do not find tables 220 (Cottbus–Görlitz–Zittau) and 229 (Hoyerswerda–Görlitz) at the official DB-Kursbuch any more, but do find it for example at website of the local transport association. Tables 230 (Görlitz–Dresden) and 235 (Zittau–Dresden) may still be found at the DB-Kursbuch, though. None of those lines is operated by a DB subsidiary any more. We obviously do need multiple sources – and need to mention them, of course. Despite that I'm not sure whether we will ever be able to keep this table up to date, especially as we obviously need to keep several sources in mind. --Kleeblatt187 (talk) 14:30, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

BTW: Table 230 published by DB contains only services of Trilex/Die Länderbahn (RB 60 and RE 1), but not of Ostdeutsche Eisenbahn (line OE60V). Table 230 published by ZVON (see above) contains all services beetween Görlitz and Bischofswerda. So even the existing tables published by DB are not fully reliable. --Kleeblatt187 (talk) 14:30, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
