    By the way, it’s not really the trains. We have other companies run many lines, especially with the commuter trains. It’s the rest of the infrastructure. The tracks, switches, signals, railway control centers… Those break all the time because they’ve been stingy with the upkeep for decades. In effect causing the delays. So, if you run third-party trains over the same tracks, they’ll also get delayed or cancelled, exactly as the DB ones do.
