Rail geeks, what's happening with the ICE L stock replacing the steam train between Amsterdam and Berlin? Have they been spotted doing testing and validation runs?

@quixoticgeek approval delayed. Now due to run in 2025.

@quixoticgeek Talgo 🤷‍♂️ I’m not surprised.

🚆 I've just been sent this screenshot from the DB Navigator, showing a 3-hour delay in Berlin, even though the train was on time.

The personnel on board told passengers to ignore the delay, saying that it was "an error from the AI". (But emails offering compensation were sent).

Do you train nerds know about this DB system to predict delays? And why it fails so often that DB employees learned to ignore it?

@algowatching no idea. I’ll ask a few people.

@algowatching contact says there have been some diversions via Dessau, so perhaps that was the cause, and then the train in the end wasn’t diverted. But more likely it was a data entry error. He reckons the chance this is a AI gone wrong is low.
