Renovating Rhine Rails: Your summer 2025 commute might get a little bumpier, mate! Deutsche Bahn's kicking off a massive overhaul on the Rhine Line, affecting both Rhine Line and RB 10. Get ready for diversions, nighttime train replacements, and maybe even a few bus rides.
Construction Galore!
From June to December, Deutsche Bahn's got heavy-duty renovation work planned for the right bank railway line between Troisdorf and Wiesbaden. They're aiming to improve the infrastructure over the long haul, but it's gonna mean some temporary track closures and schedule changes.
Your New Schedule
Prepare for some schedule shuffling on the RB 10 line (Frankfurt - Neuwied), especially in affected sections. Some of your train trips will be replaced by buses during the night. Check digital info systems for the lowdown on those replacement connections.
Stay Informed
Keep an eye on platform notices and online platforms for updates on schedule changes. Deutsche Bahn's website (www.deutschebahn.com) is another great resource to get the latest.
