Der Zug wartete nach 4 Minuten, obwohl er bereit war zu gehen. Nicht nur ich, sondern auch 50 andere, sondern jetzt würde die Verzögerung weitergeführt werden, glaube ich.

It says that it is still scheduled to be on time once it reaches Frankfurt. So it seems to have some leeway.

Seems in Giesen it has a longer stay as it is coupled with another train.
Well yeah I suppose but I guess I would also be thankful that it waited?
What we all forget is that DB is mostly in its current crisis because of shitty politicians who provided basically no funding for the infrastructure for decades.
>The train waited like 4 minutes even though ready to go. Not only me but there were 50 others, but now the delay would be carried on I believe.
Not necessarily. I know the connection to Frankfurt quite well, and they usually make up for their delay on the section to Giessen.
Yeah, but it’ll be quite the walk, from platform 54
Awesome, I’ve never had a train wait for me, but I’ve been in trains waiting for others
Yes; generally speaking, if possible important connecting trains will wait up to about five minutes or so. There is enough leeway in the timetable so that, as long as nothing else goes wrong, a small delay like that can in theory be made up.
That doesn’t always work well, since the rail network is currently operating well over capacity, and Frankfurt Hbf is a notorious bottleneck (it’s a huge terminus handling more trains than it was designed for), so you might still arrive late. On the other hand, I have in the past been on an ICE train that was operating with a 20-minute delay when I boarded but got me to my destination nearly two minutes early, so anything’s possible.
Lol the exact same thing with the exact same connection happened to me on friday last week
