Signal box failure in Bremen

In Bremen this morning, the trains came to a standstill. The reason was a power supply failure in a signal box that controls almost all trains at Bremen Central Station. Until 11 a.m., no long-distance or regional trains were running to and from Bremen. Stations in the surrounding area were also affected. By midday, the first trains were running again, but there were mainly restrictions on the Hamburg to Osnabrück route.
