Nice weather for some fun: No train traffic between Holzkirchen and Munich - "Short-term" trouble
First report, June 28, 1:01 PM: Munich - The weekend (June 28) has some cracking weather for getting out and about. However, if you're eyeing destinations in Oberland, you'll need a hitchhiking buddy, 'cause train's a no-go, least that way, starting from Friday evening. A "short-term" hiccup from DB InfraGO AG came to light.
Due to several damaged switches, Deisenhofen station has seen something of a closure, the infrastructure provider explained. "Impacting the BRB networks Oberland and Chiemgau-Inntal as well as the Munich S-Bahn." The work started around 6 PM on Friday evening but still ain't done by Saturday afternoon, leaving the closure standing.
This has some consequences. On their website, the Bayerische Regiobahn (BRB) states, "We strongly advise against trips to the Oberland or from the Oberland to Munich!"
BRB says no to Oberland trips, replacement service for Munich S-Bahn
Between Holzkirchen and Munich Central Station, no train traffic is currently rolling. The BRB informs, "The trains from the Oberland (Bayrischzell, Lenggries, Tegernsee) end and turn in Holzkirchen. The trains of the Mangfall line (Rosenheim) also end and turn in Holzkirchen."
