@chuuchuu@toot.community not nearly as much as in France - ask @jon@gruene.social. Yes the likelyhood that you miss a connection is higher, but even smaller branch lines try to run at least hourly. DB staff actually tries to help you if you miss a connection. In France you are mostly left alone. For some relations there are like 2-3 connections a day. I remember e.g. Altkirch-Lauterbourg (Alsace south to north) being a pain 15 years ago - I often had hours of layerover in Strassbourg.

@chuuchuu@toot.community @vermeer@mstdn.social I wonder what the statistics would look like if the total number of trains or passengers on the respective routes were also taken into account. Germany is much more densely populated and has a more complex rail network than, for example, Switzerland. So even minor disturbances have a much greater impact.
