Were there even any passengers on it at that point

[-] Racchio@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 day ago

And Trenitalia blamed the passengers, because many of them received a warning SMS but didn't drastically change their plans to adapt to the train's new schedule!

The Japanese, operating the Shinkansen, would commit Seppuku.

Anyone from a country with Arriva gets this.

A private railway company, an ex-subsidiary of Deutsche Bahn

Arriva just don't arrive.

How to cover up leaving 10 minutes late!

Fascists: "At least under Mussolini the trains ran on time!"

Italy under (fascist) Meloni:

Say what you will about Mussolini, he does a great salami impression 🙃

Ma cuanto mi manca Italia…

[-] ASDraptor@lemmy.autism.place 67 points 3 days ago

I can assure you that you won't find an Italian person surprised by this.

Trenitalia is something else, and any commuter that regularly uses their trains can tell you horror stories about their services.

Ironically, trains don't run on time, despite their fame.

except the london underground, that shit comes once ever 3 mins bang on time, I miss it so bad.

except the times I had to use the overground like a fucking chump, that shit's just national rail with a brand makeover. I had to wait like 20 mins to get on the train to go get laid after work.

worth it though

You understand that that was about fascist Italy, right? And the reality is that they did not run on time.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_time

my idea is more that they printed out timetables, set up clocks etc to claim that they are punctual.

[-] trolololol@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Oh yeah the other things fascists are known for is reasoning and telling the truth

[-] kerbits@lemmy.ml 21 points 2 days ago

I am Italian. I just wanted to share this crazy news to the world. 😅

[-] ValorieAF@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

I can't not pronounce that like "genitalia" in my mind.

[-] Zip2@feddit.uk 9 points 2 days ago

You’re not the only one.

It’s similar, just with slightly larger tunnels.

[-] sobanto@feddit.org 42 points 2 days ago

Deutsche Bahn has an evil brother.

[-] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 1 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago)

The German government should retake full control and bring back Deutsche Bundesbahn. Deutsche Bahn AG is a fucking failure.

[-] starchylemming@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

deutsche bahn would still be late

[-] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 day ago

DB: the train is late 5 minutes. Actually 20. Actually 45. Actually 97. Actually the train was just cancelled 1 hour ago for no reason, but we were too afraid to tell you because you might get mad 👉🏻👈🏻

[-] TimeNaan@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago

This would be better suited for /c/nottheonion

[-] pugsnroses77@sh.itjust.works 18 points 2 days ago

they just wanted to save everyone the embarassment of being -40 minutes late to work
