Overview
- Cable theft in the Humboldthain area on April 25 severed five cables, halting S-Bahn service between Nordbahnhof and Gesundbrunnen.
- Initial repairs allowed limited service to resume, but a defective signal box and a subsequent signal system fault caused further interruptions on April 26.
- Nord-Süd lines S1, S2, and S25 are operating on reduced schedules, while the S26 remains suspended; full repairs are expected to conclude by Sunday at 3 AM.
- Passengers are advised to use alternative U-Bahn and tram routes provided by BVG to bypass affected areas during disruptions.
- The Ringbahn, closed for bridge reconstruction, is scheduled to reopen on April 28, restoring service on lines S41 and S42.
