That's because German rail is an absolute disaster. They used to have +90% on time schedules which is now below 60%. Compare that to Switzerland where the "Chancellors" do travel via rail and the on time rate in 2022 was 92,5% for the entire network (Connections where made at 98.9%!). [1] German rail is no longer what it was 20 years ago. The previous admin underfunded it and basically destroyed it. It requires over 80 Billion in rapiers and the current government is only promised to spend maybe half over the next few years. Current spending on German rail is around EUR 100 per capita per year while in Switzerland it is EUR 400+. [1] https://reporting.sbb.ch/puenktlichkeit?=&years=1,4,5,6,7&sc... |
