Deutsche Bahn compensates for consequential damage caused by rail disruption Rastatt

Speaking at Swiss rail operator Hupac’s ‘Rastatt Never Again’ forum, Frank Sennhenn, CEO of DB Netz, a division of Deutsche Bahn, announced that all companies that suffered losses due to the disruption of the rail route will receive compensation. Due to a subsidence in a rail tunnel under the tracks under construction, the Rhine-Alpine corridor was interrupted for freight traffic for seven weeks. The damage to rail operators and rail users ran into millions of euros.
