Regular Electric Freight Train Service, not Passenger Service

[edit]

The article says: "Since 18 April 2009, passenger services are also electrified again." This is a misunderstanding. The German text, from which this piece of information is translated, says: "regular services are also electrified again." This refers to "regular freight train service". A regular passenger train service has not been re-introduced yet (2010) since it was withdrawn in 2005. -- Riggenbach (talk) 15:24, 22 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Branch line "Wechsel station - Drei Annen Hohne"

[edit]

The article says about the former branch line between the stations "Wechsel station" and "Drei Annen Hohne": "This line was closed in 1963 and the track was later lifted, but the trackbed left in place. As a result it was able to be rebuilt without the need for planning permission." - As a matter of fact, this connection has not been rebuildt yet, and for the time being, I didn't hear anything about any realistic plans to do so. The misunderstanding is based on the very similar German words "konnte" (it was possible) and "könnte" (it would be possible). The message should be: "As a result it would (theoretically) be possible to rebuilt it without the need for planning permission." --- Riggenbach (talk) 16:04, 24 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
