Train's Canine Companion
On the evening of September 1, 2025, a tragic incident occurred at Herbrechtingen station. A dog, belonging to a German citizen, was struck and killed by a regional train. The incident, which took place around 21:30, caused minor damage to the train and resulted in the suspension of train traffic in the Herbrechtingen area, as the police investigation got underway.
The dog's owner, a 30-year-old man, is currently under investigation for endangering rail traffic. The exact circumstances leading to the dog jumping onto the tracks remain unclear.
In a separate incident, the Federal Police Inspectorate Stuttgart initiated an investigation against a 40-year-old Ukrainian man. This individual is suspected of dangerously interfering with railway operations, having pulled the emergency release of an S-Bahn at Ludwigsburg station. The motives behind this action are yet to be clarified.
The police investigation, conducted by the Federal Police Inspectorate Stuttgart, is preliminary in nature. For inquiries, the public is advised to contact the Federal Police Inspectorate Stuttgart (contact details provided).
In the aftermath of the incident, an emergency brake was applied, but the impact could not be entirely avoided. The regional express train was unable to prevent the collision with the dog.
Train traffic in the Herbrechtingen area was suspended during the investigation, but normal services have since resumed. The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of vigilance and adherence to safety regulations around railway stations.
