GSM-R故障导致德国全境铁路停运

6月23日晚间，德国全国铁路专用GSM-R数字无线通信系统发生全域故障，全国客运、货运列车全线停运，直至午夜后行车才逐步恢复。此次故障波及德国铁路公司（德铁）长途列车、区域短途列车、德铁运营的城市快铁（S-Bahn）线路、民营铁路运营商线路以及全部铁路货运班次。

据德国通讯社消息，周二晚间约22:30起，所有列车就地停靠车站。首批列车在00:30左右恢复通行，但德铁提醒，延误与班次取消情况或将持续至周三早高峰。铁路运营商表示已查明故障根源，但未披露更多细节。出问题的GSM-R是铁路数字通信系统，专门用于司机与调度中心之间关乎行车安全的通信联络。德铁首席执行官伊芙琳·帕拉接受《图片报》采访时称，公司依靠一套应急系统稳住了运营局面。德铁为受困乘客发放出租车、酒店代金券，条件允许的情况下，允许乘客留在停滞的列车上等候。《时代周报》报道，柏林全城城市快铁全线停运，斯图加特城市快铁所有列车也被迫停驶；汉堡高架地铁系统未受本次铁路无线故障波及。

故障停运时段恰逢德国内铁路货运的高峰晚夜间，所有货运列车同步停运。德国民营货运铁路协会要求针对此次事故开展独立调查，而非仅采信德国铁路基础设施公司（DB InfraGO）的内部评估报告。

本次全网瘫痪时长约两小时。德国铁路过往虽曾因极端天气大范围停运，但单纯技术故障导致全国铁路全线停摆的情况十分罕见。

Radio failure stops trains across Germany

A nationwide failure of Germany’s GSM-R railway radio system brought passenger and freight services to a standstill late on 23 June, before operations gradually resumed after midnight.

The disruption affected Deutsche Bahn’s long-distance and regional services, DB-operated S-Bahn networks, private operators and rail freight traffic.

According to dpa, trains were held at stations from around 22:30 on Tuesday evening. The first services began moving again at around 00:30, although DB warned that delays and cancellations could continue into the Wednesday morning peak.

The railway company said it had identified the cause of the failure but did not provide further details. The problem affected GSM-R, the digital radio system used for safety-related communication between train drivers and railway control centres.

DB CEO Evelyn Palla told Bild that the company had been able to “stabilise the situation with an emergency system”. DB offered affected passengers taxi and hotel vouchers and, where possible, allowed them to remain aboard stationary trains.

Die Zeit reported that the entire Berlin S-Bahn network was suspended, while trains were also stopped across the Stuttgart S-Bahn network. Hamburg’s Hochbahn metro services were not affected by the railway radio failure.

Freight operations were also halted during the outage, which occurred during the evening and night period when a large share of German rail freight services operate. Germany’s private freight railway association has called for an independent review of the incident rather than relying solely on DB InfraGO’s internal assessment.

The shutdown lasted around two hours. While Germany has previously suspended large parts of its railway network because of severe weather, a nationwide halt caused by a technical failure is unusual.
