Train chaos in Brandenburg: Heat causes massive journey cancellations!
A hot summer brings with it: It's not only time for a jump into the cool water, but also for a few surprises in rail transport. Today, July 2, 2025, Deutsche Bahn published some essential information about the current train connections. Many passengers in and around Dresden have to adapt to restrictions caused by weather-related factors.
The affected regional trains include the linesRE4from Stendal to Jüterbog,RE6from Berlin Charlottenburg to Hennigsdorf (b Berlin),RB55from Hennigsdorf (b Berlin) to Velten/Kremmen andRB31from Elsterwerda-Biehla to Dresden Neustadt. These connections will be suspended from 5:00 p.m. today until 4:30 a.m. tomorrow morning. The background is trip cancellations caused by the persistent heat, such as [news.de].
Important information for travelers
Passengers are urged to find out the current departure and arrival times before traveling. There are various platforms available for this: The DB Navigator app, the website bahn.de and the VBB app are reliable contact points. In the event of delays of at least 20 minutes, passengers also have the right to continue their journey on another route, which also includes long-distance trains - although trains that require reservations or special trips are excluded.
The traffic website bahn.de also provides current information on the general traffic situation and offers an overview of train radar, delay alarms and network disruptions. An interactive disruption map that illustrates the current situation is available at db-fahrplan.com - a real help in such heated times.
Heat as a recurring problem
These current challenges are not the first time that Deutsche Bahn has struggled with weather-related problems. Last year, the extreme winter weather caused significant disruptions to all traffic, as tagesschau.de noted. In such cases, the railway canceled the train connection and allowed passengers to postpone their trips or choose alternative routes.
More than just a heat wave: traffic disruption is an issue that affects many travelers, especially in summer. In the meantime, timely information is provided both in the city center and in the surrounding communities in order to offer travelers the best possible planning.
For everyone who still doesn't want to miss out on travel: Deutsche Bahn's diverse offerings and unbeatable service make it possible to get from A to B comfortably even in the hot season - with a little flexibility, of course.
