Copenhagen S-trains face severe disruption Tuesday due to power supply fault

S-train services across Copenhagen are anticipated to run on a heavily reduced schedule throughout Tuesday. This disruption is attributed to a fault in the overhead power supply system near Copenhagen Central Station, according to DSB, the national railway company.

Banedanmark, the national railway infrastructure manager, confirmed the issue on social media, stating that repairs are in progress. However, they described the work as complicated, indicating that the impact on S-train lines will be substantial. The exact timeline for resolving the fault and restoring full service has not yet been provided.

The power supply failure has already caused delays and alterations to S-train lines A, B, and C on Monday. Line A and B experienced delays in both directions, while Line C faced disruptions between Frederikssund and Valby, and again between Hellerup and Klampenborg.

DSB has urged passengers to stay informed by checking their website for ongoing updates regarding Tuesday's train operations. The complexity of the repairs suggests that the disruptions could extend beyond Tuesday, though no definitive information is available.

We are in the process of repairing the overhead power supply on the S-train line between Copenhagen Central Station and Vesterport. The work is complicated, so traffic on the S-train line will be heavily reduced on several lines tomorrow.
