G'day BW,
DB Zs1 had been a factor in a number of incidents due to either misuse or misunderstanding.
Bad Aibling being one of the worst.
I have not been able to unearth a gleisplan for Ebenhausen-Schäftlarn bahnhof.
So, don't know IF Zs1 signal is provided.
However, I have unearthed some interesting info about that single track branch line.
There is a chemicals plant at the end, so freight trains do rattle.
The info that I posses is around 7 years old, but I would doubt that any major alterations have occurred in the region since.
Track speeds are in the 70 kph range increasing to 90 kph.
There are some steep grades, including 1 in 50.
In the vicinity of Ebenhausen-Schäftlarn bahnhof the buchfahrplan stipulates an interesting instruction.
That being for trains to make a Service Brake Application.
I presume this applies to freighters, but wonder if emu commuter trains must also comply.
The single line has a number of bahnhoefe with crossing loops.
So, one does wonder just how two trains appeared in the section.
Will just hafta await the EUB prang report.
Steve.
