Warnings issued regarding allegedly dangerous power outlets along the Northern rail line.
Officials send a heads-up to travelers using electrical outlets on Northrail trains running between Büsum and Neumünster. On a recent Thursday, at least two instances surfaced where passengers received minor injuries from jutting plug parts (pins) from electrical outlets. In one case, a woman got an electrical shock, while the second scenario, fortunately, left no one harmed. At first, it was unclear if the outlets had been tampered with.
Investigations are underway regarding potential injury risks, according to reports. Passengers in the area are advised to check electrical outlets before usage and inform train staff or authorities if they notice any signs of tampering.
Though the investigations are ongoing, it's crucial for other passengers to stay alert and thoroughly examine electrical outlets before using them. If they spot anything out of the ordinary, it's essential to report it right away to the train staff or local law enforcement for a closer inspection.
