The transition to the new CFF timetable took place without major problems for commuters on Monday morning. Punctuality was described as good and no overloads on board the trains were noted.
“Our observation after a day and a half of commissioning is very positive. It’s mission accomplished for the first day,” declared David Fattebert, regional director of the CFF to the media gathered on Monday at the Renens (VD) operations center.
As a median on the French-speaking network, trains were 13 seconds behind the planned timetable. “This punctuality has never been achieved in French-speaking Switzerland for several years,” he exclaimed. The Broye line, however, tarnished this result a little. “We still have big infrastructure challenges in this region,” he said.
The fifty customer assistants present in the main stations in the region have been little used. “Commuters were generally very well informed,” observed Mr. Fattebert.
