>Wuppertal, Germany, 18th of November, 2018 >passer-by reports that a part of the suspension monorail track seems to be damaged >less than an hour later, part of the conductor rail falls off>hits the back of a car, missing the driver by a mere meter >personell had only just arrived at the scene to investigate the report >the cause of the incident is completely unclear>sabotage is possible >there had been a similar accident in 2013, where a pantograph knocked a conductor rail to the ground >rolling stock was upgraded and security checks on the track were quadrupled >thus, the cause seems to be entirely unrelated this time around >investigations and repairs will take until mid-2019 >until then, 80 000 monorail passengers per day will have to settle for replacement bus service What do you think? Should even more maintenance work and security checks be done? Could it be a problem with the new rolling stock? Did someone climb up on the rail and damage it deliberately? Was it just a prank bro?
