PHOTO: Germany did not allow 350 Hungarians to enter – their train was unacceptable

More than 350 passengers found themselves hopeless on the platform of a Czech station after the German crew refused to take a Hungarian train due to its unacceptable technical condition.

According to iho.hu, the Hungária EuroCity was not allowed to enter Germany on 7 May. The Hungarian State Railways (MÁV) thought it was OK that the air-conditioning did not work in a carriage and one of the windows was broken. However, the German crew refused to take over from their Hungarian colleagues. Therefore, the train could not continue its journey towards Hamburg.

As a result, approximately 350 passengers remained on the platform of the train station of Děčín. However, neither the Hungarian company nor the German Deutsche Bahn (DB) offered help to them.

That was not the first time Germany did not allow a train to enter the country due to its technical condition. Last summer DB stopped multiple EuroCity trains coming from Prague because they did not have a dining car or it lacked carriages. Some Czech trains needed to be abandoned in Děčín, so locals are probably aware of why sometimes many people flood their streets asking for help to continue their journey.

    I wish those Germans could do something about the “brand new” M3 cars. Now, those are pathetic in the 21st century. How could it happen that a city like Budapest decided no air-conditioning for perhaps the most used transit line? Who decided this?

    Gee, half the world has no air conditioning. Hungarians were better off staying out of Germany, at least they were not murdered and women not raped.

    The government: “This is EU’s fault. They didn’t give us the funds. Blah blah blah”

    Honestly this news makes me laugh.. I’m glad Germany didn’t accept this shitty train. And passengers shouldn’t either. Don’t you want to travel in good condition? What if planes were in bad condition? I don’t think you would accept this. It’s dangerous.

    @Maria: because women don’t get raped in Hungary? Didn’t a teacher sexually-assault one of his female students recently? Or you blocked this information because the teacher was not part of the LGBTQ-propaganda?

    @mariavontheresia – could you elaborate on your Germany-murder-rape statement ? Are Hungarians at risk ? Is it an EU thing ? Other ?
