The train indicator at Bonn Hbf, announcing RE 11116 (11115 is wrong) to Emmerich on 23 May 2004. Because of construction works near Cologne main station, a lot of trains did not run via Cologne ("Nicht über Köln"), and the passengers were asked to listen to the announcements given by the loudspeakers ("Bitte Ansage beachten"), which tried to explain them how to get to their destination. This train ran over freight tracks in the south of Cologne, with no stop between Hürth-Kalscheuren (not a normal stop of this line) and Leverkusen Mitte.
